Wireshark 3.2.3, iMac 2017, MacOS 10.12.4
I'm trying to figure out why the "LAN Control" on a Yeelight "smart lightbulb" stopped working. You can control the bulb by sending UDP messages at port 55443. This was working fine for me for a while and then stopped. A friend suggested using Wireshark to check network traffic. I've found it to be a steep learning curve.
When I use a filter with the IP address of the device (ip==192.168.0.200), Wireshark detects no traffic at all even when I send a formerly working message via UDP. OK, something wrong.
But even when I ping the device Wireshark shows nothing at that IP address:
MyMachine:~ mnewman$ ping -c 3 192.168.0.200 PING 192.168.0.200 (192.168.0.200): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.0.200: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=133.614 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.200: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=3.227 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.200: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=4.719 ms

3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0.0% packet loss

What am I doing wrong?
