If you install NPcap without checking the install in winpcap api-compliant mode, it will not use wpcap.dll and instead use its default packet.dll for the lib, and not populate wpcap.dll.

Edit: My apologies, the xemu cross-compiler docker container hogs about 12.5 gbs of ram on my laptop causing it to crawl, so I'm using the current runners to generate the working build!

Turns out my initial prognosis of why this doesn't work was incorrect... I'll continue to diagnose and come up with a solution... this current impl works however is hit or miss due to the differences in non-winpcap api mode
