Having no luck monitoring NTP

Hello. I am working on an IoT device based on an Adafruit Feather with a Wiznet W5500 Ethernet breakout board. It is running an SNTP client that only gets a response for its first request. I am trying to use Wireshark to figure out what is going on but am not getting any output related to the device.

I have tried:

  • port 123 capture filter
  • ip.host display filter
  • ethernet filters

The port 123 filter did capture an NTP request/response from my Mac.

Environment:

  • MacPro, MacOS 15.5
  • Wireshark 4.6.4
  • The Mac and the Feather are plugged into the same Ethernet switch

Note that Wireshark does not capture either the request or the response for the first request.

I know that the W5500 is functional because I do get a response first request and at startup the device also makes an HTTP request and gets and displays the response as expected.

TIA, D.
