Is there a way for wireshark to start upon computer startup?
Just want to have wireshark start as soon as I turn my computer on? I am wanting to start capturing packets from the ethernet port as soon as the computer is started up.

What Operating System?
Windows Operating System
What packets are you interested in? As I indicated in my comment on Bob Jones's answer, Windows may send and receive packets before it's even ready to run Wireshark, so even if it could start up Wireshark at some point during startup, you wouldn't get all the packets.
Well the ethernet port mirrors a port on the switch and need it to capture, problem is I need computer to reboot from time to time for Windows updates, because it is a dedicated system.
