In this video I’ll show you how to use Wireshark with UniFi to capture live packets directly from your network devices. We’ll cover how to enable SSH access, fix the common “Wireshark can’t connect” issue, and set the right filters so you can see what’s really happening on your network in real time. Whether you’re troubleshooting DNS, DHCP, or mysterious traffic, Wireshark lets you go beyond the UniFi dashboard and see the truth in the traffic.
