ping only tests latency *not* throughput. So it is not really a good test.

what kind of bandwidth you max out using that. Or use ping with -i & -s
set to reasonable values depending on whether you're using jumbo frames or
not.
If the problem is your connection is dropping a few packets, this will show
up better here. Using "ping -f" is also a pretty good troubleshooter.
