Greetings.
I have two LinkStation - LS-WVL models that have worked well for me for a while now. But with an update in Windows 10, they started having problems connecting because of the SMB version. Sometimes I can manage to get Win10 to connect and sometimes I can't, but it's my wife using Windows and she doesn't usually need to access the NAS, so that hasn't been a burning issue.
This weekend I upgraded my own laptop from Ubuntu 16.04 to 20.04, and now I cannot access my NASes either. My fstab entry was copied/pasted directly from my old file, and I've updated the smb.conf file with client min protocol = CORE, but these don't help. When I try to mount from fstab, I get this error:
mount: /media/FileServer: special device //192.168.1.2/share does not exist.
I understand that Buffalo has never officially supported using this device with Linux (ironic, since it runs on Linux), but I'm hoping that someone out there may have some suggestion for how to reconnect. Thanks!
My firmware version is 1.64, which is the newest available from Buffalo.
