You are not suppose to be EXPERT but just to understand the basics.
In most cases it will continue to frustrate you after you will
understand the real problem so give yourself some slack.
I did find, from googling that maybe i missed a single forward chain:
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -j ACCEPT
I like the output of "iptables-save" which can make more sense to me.
if it worked before and the only problem was it is dosnt work well
that(iptables) is probably not the problem.
But it didn't make a difference...
When you say lower, do you mean settings in for instance
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
I mean by drivers faulty switch\cable\router\line etc.
(maybe it's related to reverse path filtering)
the odds that the fault is at iptables is so limited it's unlikely the
cause.(but not 100% guarantied).

Ubuntu 12.04
OK
what evidence you do have that proves the packets loss?
if it get's into one interface but dosnt come-out from the other it's
something with kernel settings.
there aren't many options about it.
I would suggest you to post in Ubuntu-servers with hardware
specification of the machine and topology.
you can Cc me and I will try to help you on my free time.
