Browsing SMB Workgroup using the Kodi Interface

Browsing the workgroup is a feature of smb v1 which is being removed due to it being a 30 year old protocol riddled with security issues. We see the same thing on windows networks when smb v1 is removed.

To my knowledge your need to use another advertisement protocol like Bonjour, but in practise it’s not necessary once you’ve got used to the change in behaviour.
