Is there a way to monitor users' data traffic through a network (ex. a wifi network connected to the internet) and communicate them to max using for example the serial communication protocol?

It would be nice for me to use those infos to map some audio parameters for a project.

Thanks in advice for your help. Really appreciated.

check out the tshark CLI that comes with wireshark -- awesome fun! wrap it with a bit of some scripting to send osc to max to make your params dance

Is there a guide on how to pull out infos and data from tshark/wireshark in OSC protocol?

Thank you Dirk, it seems interesting!

I'm not really skillful on that...

here's a minimalist reference using a short python3 script pushing tshark traffic to a max patch I threw together up in 

here's a minimalist reference using a short python3 script pushing tshark traffic to a max patch I threw together up in github -- enjoy

I'll try not only to use it but also to learn from it.

I'm trying to setup all the things (I didn't have python installed).

I took the version 2.7 of py, installed the python-osc library.

When I run the python script it works, but it tells me that it's capturing from firewire.

I assume that I have to change the script to capture the data flow from the wifi connection, but I'm not really sure how to do that.

I'm using Wireshark instead of the textual version of it, Tshark. Is it a problem?

Thank you in advance and sorry for my beginner questions.

you'll need to use tshark for the provided script to work as written. are you on a mac or pc? you can test tshark separately to experiment with traffic filters then update the python script to fit your needs via a shell/dos prompt

I've also tried to run tshark from the terminal (tshark -v), but the result is the same, no messages in the max console.

Ok, I've located the right interface: 4. en1 (that it's my wifi network).

Selecting it from tshark, it shows me the traffic through it.

Now, how can I change the listening port in the py script?

the current patch and python code both reference port 8000 -- you can change them both to any valid port of your choosing, just make sure the port numbers always match

I had a network usage to MIDI app on my Nintendo in the past and loved it. 

Would be really nice to get random data from the world to use it in Max...

Is there an easier way for this?
