An RTS/CTS setting of 3000 means it's effectively disabled.  You'd have
to set it below 1500 for it to do anything.  It's not looking like
that's your problem anyway.  RTS/CTS will help performance when
customers upload large frames (specifically ones larger than your
RTS/CTS setting).  You'd have to set it to <100 for it to affect
DNS/ARP/ICMP packets, and that would likely be a really really bad idea.

My money is on too many layers of MAC NAT.  Tranzeo and UBNT stations do
it regardless, and MikroTik's do it with station-pseudobridge set.  Do
you know how many MAC NAT'd stations you have changed together?  If
there are multiple hops, switching intermediate ones to WDS should
help/resolve the problem.
