Oh wow!! Thank you so much! 😃 I'll definitely look into openwrt 🙂
It's a Linksys model EA7300 router. It shows up to date on the firmware being at 1.0.11.200282.
I'm going to check my router again for firmware/software update, but I don't that it has support for newer SMB protocol.
Thank you all for the feedback! I posted the same on Reddit at the same time and haven't gotten any replies from Reddit yet. Looks like the power users came to Lemmy after the whole Reddit fiasco. 🙂 I'm liking it pretty well here so far. 🙂
Lol, I will need to become more familiar with how to use docker. I know how to use virtual box so I may try to run vm with 22.04. I'm still pretty new and starting my Linux Journey. 🙂
Ah....well crap. It is an old router. I checked for firmware updates on it, but I doubt that they'll bring in support for newer SMB versions. I may have to get a new router at some point. Thanks for the feedback!
In KUbuntu 22.04 LTS I had to put in my username and password in settings under "Windows Shares" for it to work. I had password protected the folders in the NAS when I was setting it up in my routers settings page.

Cannot connect to my NAS after installing KUbuntu 24.04 LTS
I was first on KUbuntu 22.04 LTS and was able to connect to my router's attached USB storage drive by adding client min protocol = NT1 to the smb.conf file within user/share/samba. My router doesn't support the newer SMB protocol.
I just recently wiped my computer and installed KUbuntu 24.04 LTS and I tried adding that same line of code to the smb.conf file, but when I try to go to the IP address of my router it tells me that "Connection to host 192.168.1.1 is broken".
I've been trying to find a solution online, but not having luck.
Anyone have any suggestions?
