Hi,
Here is a summary of where I'm at:
1. I have Wireshark 0.99.1pre1 installed.
2. I have WinPcap 4.0alpha1 installed.
3. Still no access to the grayed out box Link-layer header type capture
options (Wireshark user manual instructs to select DOCSIS here. Defaults
to Ethernet). 
4. Still no decoding of Docsis frames. I tried the docsis frames with
and without the 6 byte MAC Header.    

Please continue to assist.

Thanks,
Cliff.

Hi,
     Why don't you try wireshark which is a succession of the ethereal?
     You can download the analyser at the website
http://www.wireshark.org/
