question about sniffing wireless IPOD conversations

I have a wireless laptop with Wireshark on it and an IPod on the same network. Both my laptop and the IPod use the same NetGear wireless device for the default gateway. When I start sniffing on my wireless adapter, the only packets I see coming/going from/to the IPod are multicasts from the IPod, I don't see any traffic to/from the Netgear device or to/from the Internet.

Why is it that I am unable to see all the traffic to/from the IPod device?

thanks

johnny
