so many things come into it
A: type of router
B: is the hdd on a computer as master or slave
c: is the drive a NAS unit
d: if on computer what else does that machine do
e: it could be faulty router
f: faulty cables
g: pc is working its nuts of doing other stuff
i have loaded
gemini / pli / neutrino and others and have no issues what so ever
I have done this with a NAS unit and a usb2 hdd connected to a laptop ( 1ghz 256 ram ) which only runs my CS and nothing else what so ever.
But i test all my cables before i use them - i dont use a router i use a switch and does not get all that bottle neck of a router
and as far as i am concerned neutrino is by far the best where recording is concerned and considering i don't give 2 toss's how many new emu's and images come out i have one that does exactly what i want it to do so i don't go re-flashing just for the sake of it.
so my suggestion
test cables -test router-if the hdd is on a comp then get a usb case and use that instead if not don't use the computer for anything else.
i have done a couple tutorials on my setup with neutrino and gemini and even created a working image and distructions.
Incase some do not realise how a switch works
i have a 24 port gigabit
port one is the port the modem/router is plugged into and registers the networks address
then i plug all the other connection into the switch .Now if i could disconnect the modem/router and everything on the internal lan can all still talk to each other with out the modem router and this is where the bottleneck of the modem/router is removed for internal setups
