Airconsole: packet capture

It would be good to have embedded packet capture in Airconsole, sp. For the Ethernet port, captured packet can be saved to a USB flash attached to USB port, tcpdump or similar pcap compliant application can be used, remote pcap would also a good idea for sending the live captures to wireshark or similar applications, a GUI (web) interface for setting up filter is a plus.

FYI. Remote packet capture was added as a beta in firmware 2.55.
Here's my post with rough instructions. viewtopic.php?f=12&t=974

The packet capture feature in 2.55 is still a bit experimental. The Airconsole CPU is a little underpowered to write at wire rate to a connected USB flash drive, but it can act as a Wireshark remote probe and stream the packet capture data over WIFI network to a PC running Wireshark. More on this in a couple of months (need to finish terminal server code first).
