SMB connection issue after June update

I’ve pushed a solution that should work for everyone, but needs some testing.

Can someone please adjust their NAS settings back to how they were and try the following update?

Under Settings → Services → SMB Client, there is a new setting: “Fix issues MTU issues with SMBv2 NAS devices”. This is enabled by default and should resolve the issues you have been experiencing. If you uncheck the box, the issues should occur again.

I’d appreciate it if you could test this and provide feedback before we potentially release this as an update to other users. To test this update:

  1. Login via the command line
  2. Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list
  3. Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main
  4. Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
  5. Your system should have have received the update.

Please see if the issue is resolved.

I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.
