Hello!

I'm using local provider's network. When I start Ethereal, it only captures incoming packets from provider's gateway. If I change my IP to the gateway IP, ethereal captures only outgoing packets from local computers to gateway. Moreover, if I change my IP back to original and restart ethereal, it continues capturing only outgoing packets (until I restart computer). How can Ethereal capture all packets?
