Only the router can see all the traffic to and from the internet.

Or use a data tap, as I mentioned earlier.  It's easy to make one from a cheap managed switch. I remember those hub days.  I used Ethereal, as Wireshark was called back then, to show my manager how I could see user IDs and passwords on the network.  Encrypted passwords weren't that common back then. I also remember token ring, where every packet on the network passed through your computer!
