I've managed to get this working but now seem to have a problem with delays in transferring data, maybe dropouts of some sort. The router is a 7404VGP and i'm getting an egg timer for about a minute when navigating to directories on a external hard drive connected to my pc. My itunes library is also on this drive and playback of tracks stops for about 20 seconds every now and then almost like it is re-establishing a connection. My airport is always at full signal but could there be another reason for the delays? Its as though the router is failing and reconnecting but I'm not sure where I can find logs to check this. Any ideas? thanks.

EDIT: Sometimes, i'll be using a lot through wireless, like remote desktop to my PC as well as playing an mp3 and navigating through folders. Would the bandwidth of the wireless be a restriction here or will it handle this sort of data transfer?
