That's not a Wireshark issue - that's a hardware issue, and would require either 1) some sort of passive tap on the ADSL connectionA little googling results in: http://www.wavetel.fr/en/ NIVA_HIGH_IMPEDANCE_NON_INTRUSIVE_ADSL_ANALYSER_ANALYZER.htm Which seems to give you all info on the ADSL2 side (physical as well as logical data). I have no clue about the cost...
For anybody who cares, I've just received a reply for the above device from WaveTel. The cost for the device is (are you sitting down?): "approximately 65,000 Euros" (!!!!) and yes it will work in an American lab as that is what it is designed for--it is not designed for field use. I guess that it's not just the little box that they show in the picture but an entire support system as well!!! -- Reality Artisans, Inc. # Network Wrangling and Delousing P.O.
