CC3000 works fine but I cant capture packets

Post by noh626 »

Hi!
I have used cc3000 for my assignment. Everything worked fine but I couldnt show my professor the packets moving between cc3000 and the web server.
Here is my project.
Arduino using cc3000 connects the web server and requests data every one second. Because cc3000 cant connect the internet using my school wifi zone, I used my cell phone internet hotsopt as a home router.
My professor wanted me to prove communication between server and arduino by showing him packets. So I used wireshark to capture packets.
But the wireshark couldnt capture any packets bewtween them. I dont know why and the professor still wants to see it :(
My cell is a windows phone and it says "internet sharing is to share your cellular data connection over Wi-Fi with up to 5guests."
I dont know what I am missing now. Can anyone help me? I really needs to prove it.

Try these instructions for capturing wifi traffic with Wireshark: http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/WLAN
