qos is something you prob want to look into.
RE Traffic shaping / QoS... ironically, if you look closely at one of the images of pfSense, the 2nd tab from the left if pfSense's documentation on Traffic Shaping! Definitely on the cards, but just need to solve this problem first.

Doesn't look your states are resetting now
The previous screenshot was showing the start-stop behaviour of a large file download, the most recent actually shows the problem I'm facing. You can see the pretty stable LAN OUT and WAN IN, but look at LAN IN, this is my video stream being received on pfSense's LAN interface, now look at what pfSense is actually sending out to the Internet over WAN OUT - every traffic drop shown there is where the pings time-out, the video at the receiving end freezes and the Gateway reports massive packet loss.
When adding a large file download i.e. to saturate the WAN pipe, it masks this underlying problem - when a video stream appears on the LAN, pfSense is reporting massive packet loss. Stop the video stream, and everything returns to normal.
I've been given some advice that the likely culprit for all my woes is the USB Ethernet adapter.
Do you guys think this could be causing the interrupt correlation?
