You could extend this test by sending TCP packets across to simulate
the HTTP flow, ideally looking at the packets as they come in at the
other end. At least this way you're closer to replicating the problem
than just using ICMP.
If this doesn't get you anywhere, and as you can get ICMP packets of
1600byte across the link then have you thought about looking elsewhere
for the problem? Potentially further up the path to the Internet?
