Hi,

From my machine, is it possible to sniff all network packets at
the network gateway? Is it possible to sniff all packets at my subnet?


That depends on several things. Unless you have access to the backend cabling or want to do very bad things, it won't work IMO.

See: http://wiki.ethereal.com/CaptureSetup (in general and the Ethernet part in detail) for further info.
