hi,

tcpdump just verifies the frame was sent to the hardware via either
the raw or non-raw TX paths. It doesn't mean the hardware actually
sent the frame or that it was successfully received. :-)

Can you add a third physical node that's just in monitor mode and see
if that frame makes it over the air?

thanks,



Adrian
