How to proxy shared internet
Using Wireshark, I need to sniff some traffic on my mobile device. I've set up my Mac to share my Ethernet connection to computers using Wi-Fi, and then I set my mobile device to connect to that wifi.
Now, I want to proxy all the of the requests from the mobile device and watch the traffic from there. I cannot set a proxy on the device. There's no interface to do it unless I root it, which I don't really want to do (yeah, tell me about it). So, I need to set the proxy on the shared internet.
The thing is, I set the proxy on my wi-fi network, but I'm not seeing the traffic go through the proxy. If I set the proxy on my ethernet, I don't see the mobile device's traffic go through the proxy; all I see is my host computer's traffic.
So how do I set up a proxy on my shared internet connection?
