There is no Bluetooth support in WinPcap, which means you cannot capture Bluetooth on Windows 7 with Wireshark. There may be other tools for Windows, and I leave it up to you to google them ;-)

Anyway, you can do it on Linux with Wireshark. Please see the following links:

You have a trillion packets.

You need to see four of them.

Don't have Wireshark?
