You can take a spare PC with two ethernet cards and put FreeBSD on it, then
use dummynet and configure something like this:
ipfw add pipe 1 ip from A to B
ipfw pipe 1 config bw 1Mbit/s delay 400ms
This would simulate a 1Mbps link with a 400ms delay. dummynet can also
simulate packet loss. For more information on dummynet you can take a look at:
