I have built my own wireless AP with Ubuntu 7.10 and an Atheros-based wireless card. My problem is that I can't access any of the Samba shares with my wireless clients...they can all search for the server, get prompted for a login then it just hangs and eventually times out.
Just a guess, but check your client MTU settings. Historically we've seen problems with CIFS over VPN (really a Kerberos "fat packet" problem rather than CIFS itself) and wireless, and MTU issues were to blame. PMTU discovery/etc is meant to take care of such things, but - again - we've found issues with DSL links - which I see you mentioning too.
Change your client's MTU to 1300 and see if the problem disappears. Then reduce it on the Samba server involved instead - as that's an easier solution than touching every client.
