ARP Hardware Type Field

[parthrawat979]

Hey guys, I am just curious about the ARP Hardware Type Field for Wireless Communication?? Is it still going to be 1. And is it even possible to see some change in that value?

Okay, I rephrase it does this field ever changes?? or is it just Ethernet(1)??

  - @parthrawat979         Yes, ARP over Wi‑Fi still uses Hardware Type = 1 (Ethernet),
                                       and no, you should not expect that to change , it's part of 802.11 (a fixed standard)
