Using timestamps from syslog isn't going to give you any useful
information since the data may be delayed getting to syslogd.

Is there some reason you are not just sniffing the air?  Assuming
packets are being deferred because the medium is busy you might see a
reason.  Otherwise it appears (though it's impossible to tell from what
you've shown so far) that the packets are handed to the h/w in a timely
fashion.
