B) Sorting on the MAC header type? Really? That's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. If I wanted to sort through a bunch of headers, I'd become a postal worker.

D) The Statistics | WLAN Traffic option is perfect for this. It'll give you a nice visual breakdown of all the BSSIDs and their activity. Who needs filters when you've got charts?

A) Filtering on wlan.bssid.id seems like the obvious choice here. Why bother with sorting or opening random statistics when you can just target the BSSID directly?
