Thank you wengi, for this nice [How To]!
I have wl500gp and I followed your tutorial and everything works with firmware 1.9.2.7-8.
I have two questions for you:
1) please tell me the steps that I must follow, when I want to take off the hdd from router? I ask you this because with samba I transfer with 1MB/s and I had install a program ext2ifs on my computer. The problem is when I connect the hdd to the computer and I want to access the third partition I get a error: "The disk is not formated! Do you want to format?" and this error apears because I don't disconnect corect the hard from router. I have tried with the eject button from web interface and with the comand "halt" but it doesn't work!
2) if I do step 15. Optimize performance from your [How To], how I start/stop samba with xinetd? It is a command?
Thanks and sorry for my english.
All the best for you!
