The scenario:
I want my movies and music available to my Mac Mini for the following appications:
Air Video Server
Playback
Plex (Server Mode)
So I have the Mini and LS-V2.0TL connected to each other via a 100/1000 Netgear Switch to ensure maximum reliability. However, the LS-V2.0TL simply will not maintain a reliable SMB or AFP mount and OS X will not reliably recover from a disconnect without manually going back to the share via finder to browse the share.
Here are some logs...

This isn't a problem with the switch as multiple switches have been tried. It isn't a problem with the afformenetioned software because it all chugs along just fine if the media is on the local hard drive.
Any help in nailing down why the LS-V2.0TL is dropping the connection in the first, and moreover why OS X seems unable to recover from the drop would be most appreciated.
Otherwise the device is essnetially useless to me.
