I have had similar problems in the past and as others have alluded to,
it is easy to "break" a multidisk set to the point where I've quit
trying to fix things before MP3Tag (EAC earlier, DBPoweramp now).

I've essentially written an Action in MP3Tag that looks at items such
as Discnumber, Album Title, etc and rewrites the tags to match a 

Track = 101, 201, etc. style like others have mentioned based on the
highest disc number (so that 4 digits will show up if I'm up to 10
discs).

Discnum = 1 (set to the same for all tracks).  I used to eliminated
Discnum but some other software kept occasionally writing a Discnum tag
to the occasional track if it wasn't there, so I've kept it there for
everything.

Replaygain-Album = "max" of all replay gain album values to keep them
consistent amongs the whole set.

Album = Title - most multidisc sets will have a (disc 1), etc. tag, so
I remove that part and make sure they are all the same

etc... Sounds like a lot of work, but by using an action I've set it up
once (and tweaked it a handful of times since) to make it work in MP3Tag
everytime with one click.

The MP3Tag forums are great for help with creating actions.
