You might want to check and make sure that your server has a 100 MB connection to the Hub. If it doesn't, you could be bottlenecking at the server which will cause the problem that you are seeing.

does it show you the share name for the W drive? I had a same problem with a NT machine with a J drive that has no share name and would not disconnect for nothing. when in command prompt, it saids it disconnects successfully but the drive still exist. I reapplied service pack and it fixed my problem.
