You can submit pcap files to tickets - you will need to make sure that there are no spaces in the filename though, and also that the file size is less than 4MB (so only a couple of seconds' worth of capture).
Hope that helps,

Edit: If you use 7-zip to create the zip file there is an option to create a multi part zip so although it would be a pain uploading each part in turn, effectively there is no limit to the size of Wireshark capture you can upload.

Quote from: deathtrap ... only a few seconds aint gonna work the file is going to be a lot larger than 4mb ...
As per this, I submitted a ticket and got the surprise response that a Wireshark capture was required. I wish the referenced thread would mention that. I digress - I worried about the size but it was fine, and before zipping was only around 800Kb. I captured the starting of the Uplay (ugh) browser and it connecting/signing in, clicking play which loads the single player game which also had to connect to the servers, and then you have to select multiplayer (so inconvenient), then the single player exe quits and the multiplayer exe loads and that too then has to connect to the servers. Then wait for enough players to connect with me before starting. Admittedly I had the never before seen situation of immediate connection of the multiplayer exe followed by the immediate connection to a full set of players. Anyway, my point is that quite a bit was captured and it wasn't so large.
