    Writing problem on external Harddisk

    Hi all,
    I have the Asus WL500gP Router with the 1.9.7.5 original firmware. Attached to the router I have a 500gB external Western Digital MyBook Harddrive (formated with Fat32).
    I generated users & share nodes, to share several folders on the disk the our household. I mounted the shared folders as different network drives (under Windows XP SP2). Everything works fine, but...
    But I have some wierd problem when I write files to the disk. The files seem to copy normally (it takes some time doing it wireless...), but when I check if it has been written correctly some files appear to be 0kB on the disk and don't work. This happens somewhat randomly, for example if I copy a folder with two 700mb files, often one copies as it should and the other shows up as 0kB again. File size doesn't matter. I tried to copy over ftp, doesn't solve the problem.
    Reading from the disk however works just fine.
    Does anyone have a idea, what the problem could be?
    Thanks for your help!

    Cheers,
    Alex
