Your on a switch - thats how they work, they do not send every packet to every port, like a hub. Couple of different ways to do it - but if you did not know how a switch works. Might be a bit advanced for you - I highly suggest you do some research on google.

Since the linksys is not a managed switch, I highly doubt you could turn on a monitor port. But you might be able to flood its arp table and it might just failover to hub mode? Never tried it on linky. You could also arp that your IP is the gateway ;) Then everything would go through your machine before the gateway, you would have to setup a means of forwarding the packets to the true gateway or you just broke your network ;)

Depending on what your trying to sniff - have the machine sending the info your interested in, talk to your machine? Exactly what are you looking for? Just curious what type of traffic on your lan - or are you looking for something specific?

edit: I would sugget insecure.org as a place to get started on your research :)

    • I wasn't mad. Sorry if I made it sound like that. Everyone is different. PERIOD.
    • Of course there are distros that are more beginner (an actual word) friendly and have less setup/configuration out of the box. This is really your argument? There is no reason to be mad because someone said they wouldn't recommend your favorite distro to a certain type of user. Are you committed to revenge now even if it takes a lifetime or something? LOL As a community we really need to move past this. New Linux users need to be helped. In the Linux subreddits the advise is even worse. So many come asking what distro to use. Sometimes they don't mention what they use their computer for and there will be 20 comments of not one person asking that and just listing the distro they personally use. That helps no one. One pet peeve of mine is sometimes one will ask what DE they should use for distro and mention they have been using Windows for 30 years. GNOME is not the damn answer! That doesn't mean GNOME is not a good DE. Understand what I am saying?
