Hi Tim,
If I understand you correctly, your setup is like:
PC -- VoIP phone -- router -- modem -- internet
where the VoIP phone contains an integrated two-port Ethernet switch.
One way would be to extend your setup with a hub, like:
PC -- VoIP phone -- router -- hub -- modem -- internet
Make sure the hub is an authentic hub, forwarding all packets to all
ports. Avoid a switch.
Connect 3 ports to this hub:
- the WAN Ethernet port of the router
- the Ethernet port of the modem
- the LAN Ethernet port of a PC (running Wireshark)
Wireshark should sniff all traffic between your LAN and the Internet, so
you might want to filter on IP address(es) or VoIP protocol (e.g. sip).
Happy sniffing,
Tom.

Subject: [Wireshark-users] Monitoring traffic from a VOIP phone
Hi,
I'm currently trying to diagnose an issue with a VOIP phone and someone
suggested I snif the traffic -and suggested wireshark.
I've had a look around and was wondering if anyone could point me in the
right direction. I connect to a router through the phone and the phone
connects directly to the router (a Belkin N1), is there anyway I can
monitor the traffic to/from the VOIP provider?
TIA
Tim
