and that theory is still correct and still stands though....
Some drivers do make it impossible for whatever method you use.
However that doesn't mean there are no other methods you can use to actually make the raw socket. Some methods might not allow for wireless connections at all, other methods might allow it... but they all still would depend on the network drivers, despite what method you use...
So even if you use the complicated everything supporting method, it might still not work because the network driver is crappy.
