Is there some reason you are not just sniffing the air? Assuming

fashion.

I'm not sniffing the air because I don't have a third machine with a wireless card in it to use.

The packets are getting buffered somewhere between the IP stack and the medium, and I'd like to track down the queue they're sitting in and then track down why...
