Turning LRO off (ifconfig x.x.x.x -lro) instantly stopped the "Fragmentation failed" errors and solved the problem. Thank you.


Alas, although turning LRO off, and raising dev.ix.0.rx_processing_limit from 100 to 2048 helped much, tweaking isn't over just yet. According to www.speedtest.net the ADSL speed's fine early in the morning, but as more users come online and more traffic goes through the FreeBSD box the speed gradually falls to 1/2 or 1/3 of the expected value, even when picking a target server in your own city. File downloads are roughly 1/2-1/3 slower.
