Why does etherreal not capture incomming packets destined for another pc on my LAN? I have donwloaded the latest version and installed it onto a pc connected to a hub on my LAN which has a gateway to the internet. If I configure capture in promiscuos mode without any capture filter it will capture ALL outgoing packets from both machines but only the incomming ones destined for the etherreal pc

Any help will be appreciated as I have spent hours trying to get this to work

Thanks

Graham
