I have my music files on an Iomega Home Network Drive which is accessed via my Netgear DG834GT router accross wifi. I can connect ok, however after a while it will stop working and my mac hangs. I have to force a shut down on my macbook by holding down the power button . I don't want to keep doing this as it may harm my macbook hard drive. This normally happens after using iTunes.

I have tried everything, using fixed IPs within my network, using 802.11g only etc.

Has anyone got the same issue, if so is there a fix. I think it is a leopard samba issue, but it seems to have been around since 10.5, but no recognition from apple.

Any ideas? My macbook is first gen
