Some wireless cards dosn't work with promiscous mode. Try to disable it:
ethX=pcap-bridge,<network connection name>,<MAC>,nopromisc
-------------------------------------------------^^^^^^^^^

Some cards dosn't send/receive packedt with badly checksum. Try to find
a parameter setting in the wireless adapter to disable checksum.

Vista has some more protections on receiving pings and packet injections
that don't match regulary ipaddress. Disable the firewall, and ask
google about "Vista ping".
