I want to capture the traffic of my Client Server application but  
When I tried WireShark  I could not found any of my actual data  
messages transferring over my application. The reason I found for  
this is that my messages only reside in the modem memory or Sim card  
and WireShark is unable to read the messages until and unless the  
message come over to computer memory.
Given that Wireshark runs on that computer, it obviously cannot read  
the messages until they're copied to the computer's memory.
However, your client/server application *also* can't read them until  
they're copied to the computer's memory, if the application running on  
that computer.  If it's seeing the messages, then the reason is *NOT*  
that the messages only reside in the modem memory (I don't think  
they're stored in the SIM).
What OS are you running on the computer and, if it's Windows (as I  
suspect it is), what version of WinPcap do you have installed?
