What do you mean by selecting my network adapter? From where?
How do i do this?
The menu bar at the top of the Ethereal window should have a "Capture"
menu. Select "Start" from that menu.
If you are doing this on some UNIX-compatible system (Linux, BSD,
Solaris, HP-UX, etc.), you might either have to run Ethereal as root, or
configure the system to allow non-root users to capture network traffic.
See
http://wiki.ethereal.com/CaptureSetup_2fCapturePrivileges
for details on this.
Selecting the "Start" menu will open a new window; there will be a
"Capture" section, with a field labeled "Interface:". That should have
the name of a network adapter in it, and there should be a "drop-down
list" that you can select with the usual "combo box" widget (it'll
probably have a triangle pointing down) which should give you a list of
network adapters. Select from that list the adapter on which you want
to capture. (If no interfaces are listed, see
http://www.ethereal.com/faq#q5.5
and
http://www.ethereal.com/faq#q5.4
if you're running on Windows, and

and
http://www.ethereal.com/faq#q5.7
if you're running on some UNIX-compatible system.)
