    SSH (and most other internet communication these days) is encrypted. You can't view its contents. At best, you might be able to see where they are connecting to. Generally, in order to log data with Wireshark / Ettercap, you need to run one end of the connection in promiscuous mode. This means you need to run it on your router/modem, not your computer. Most router firmware will not allow you to do this. You would need to install a third-party firmware, like DD-WRT, if it's available for your router.
