Thats where I wonder...  Your graphs show similar to mine.  That is the 
ethernet port has a much higher peak on "In" then "out" but on the packet 
side they are about level.  Knowing LAN's and Windows devices, I always 
assumed this was local traffic that the radio determines wasn't for it, 
so dropped the packet without sending it.  (I.e. realize on  LAN, a 
device sees all traffic being sent to all machines and just acknowledges 
those which are for it....)  Otherwise, if you do the math, the outbound 
packet sizes are tremendously larger than the inbound packets (do the 
math), or allot of bits on the ethernet side are being dropped (i.e. 
packets not getting through).  

I haven't looked much closer at this, but always had me wondering since I 
have clients that have upload issues (outbound e-mail with attachments).

And the peaks correspond to this activity.  (i.e. the gaps between the 
inbound and outbound peaks on ethernet get greater, where as the wireless 
side, the gaps remain constant....).  So I really do believe packets are 
being dropped...

Just some thoughts..
