I think you hit the nail on the head. The Linksys WAP/router is a switch.
I.e., it's something like a Linksys BEFW11S4, with the "wired 10/100 network" being the switch inside the Linksys box, so that the cable modem and Ethereal machine are both plugged into the Linksys box?
If so, then, yes, the XBox traffic will go through the switch to the cable modem (and vice versa) without being shown to the Ethereal machine, and you'll have to put in a non-switched hub between the cable modem and the Linksys box, and tap into that hub with the Ethereal machine.
