Do you mean something like a DSL modem connected to your computer via ethernet? If so, you can definitely capture the packets there, but the packets are not encapsulated in the "classic" ethernet->IP->tcp/udp fashion. It's usually something like ethernet->PPPoE->PPP->IP (or something similar to this that I cannot remember now) so you might need to modify your dissection code accordingly.
