I agree.

Well, you should provided some more specific explanation how you use this box. 
i.e. how do you do NATting (ifpw + natd, ipf, pf or pppd's builtin)? What 
interfaces do you employ? What is the MTU of your outgoing path? Moreover 
tcpdumps are of interest in order to see why things do fail. Same for 
statistics (netstat -ssp {ip, tcp, udp ...}) to learn why the packets are 
being dropped.
