@mibovrd:
I take it the LAN interface is similar, with no collisions, etc.
Any mbuf errors in syslog? type in mbuf in the filter at the bottom. I had an issue with a realtek gig card that I added for an opt interface. I think my issue was running too many Gig cards on a PCI interface, and I had similar problems, a little more frequent than yours though. Need PCIe or x for Gig cards really.
I would Google for the intel and realtek chipset models cards to see if there are any issue that might require tweaks, there are a few that have issues. More with Realtek than Intel, but intel has some too. I would try Google pfSense 2.0.1 + chipset model numbers and then FreeBSD 8.1 + chipset model numbers.
Nothing shows up when I apply a filter for mbuf in Status: System logs: System
Thank you for the input. I'll research more into the chipsets.
Anyone use any other tools?
I am running a SmokePing test as well. NY looks interesting, have a look.

Edit:
Tests are done. Looks like route through NY is the worst. For the overall test through NY, it looks to be about over 2% packet loss. The others were slightly better.
No, mbuf errors and the WAN interface doesn't show any errors.
Based on this, it doesn't appear that the problem is on my end, but how can I be sure?
