    I have used both I prefer Wireshark with AirPCap. When I used Omnipeek I have repeatedly had it crash on me. When I am pulling frames that is extremely frustrating.

    Have you used it in conjunction with Cascade Pilot/Wi-fi Pilot or just plain jane Wireshark?

    I'm running the trial of Omnipeek, but Wireshark is well wireshark (a classic I've used for years without problem).

    I have OmniPeek but I have also had it crash on me. Even though I own OmniPeek I usually just use Wireshark.
