Go here http://sourceforge.net/search/ and search for 'promiscuous mode' or 
'WEP crack' and you will find tools for academic pursuits.

Subject: detecting promiscuous 802.11x cards...


Is it possible to detect 802.11x cards in promiscuous mode?  In theory
the answer is "no" because the cards would just be "listening" to all
packets on a channel.  But in reality, do any of the cards change
behavior in a detectable way when in promiscuous mode?  I was just
curious because I seem to recall that there is a way to detect 10/100
ethernet nics in promiscuous mode on a LAN.
