One Answer:

O.K. the ITI modem is apparently a DSL modem. If you connect the modem to your PC, they will communicate via PPPoE (or PPPoA).

So, if you want to monitor the network utilization (to the internet), you should capture on the NIC that is connected to the DSL modem. The Statistics module of Wireshark will give you some information about the utilization on the link.

Statistics -> Conversations
Statistics -> Summary
Statistics -> Protocol Hierarchy
Statistics -> IO Graph

I'm not sure what you want to say with the following !?!

when i am connting to this modem it's asking for port details to connect

Regards
Kurt
