So I have TP-Link router and I want to sniff all the packets going through the router. I'm using Wireshark right now but not able to get the packets which passes through my router.
So What I've tried so far :
1) If I create hotspot on my laptop and I connect other devices on my laptop's hotspot then I'm able to see packets going through my pc. But that's not all I need.
2) I bought a LAN cable, One end connected to my PC port and other end connected to the router's LAN port. And I chose LAN Traffic in wireshark, But still I'm not able to access the packets going through the router.
3) Can I force all websites to run on http rather than https on my own network ?
Is there any other way to do this ?
Thank You!
you will need a tap device on the line between the Router and the ISP demarc in order to see ALL traffic coming into and out of the router. As for encryption, no, you cannot force a website that wants you to use HTTPS to use HTTP. The webserver has protocol handlers attached to specific ports, and an HTTP only server does all its business on a non-80 port. that means you would get gibberish, and failure. the best you can hope to do is to put a device inline to transparently swap the certificate in use, so you could decrypt the traffic. – Frank Thomas – 2015-12-10T21:00:24.290
