I have a Linksys WRT1900AC with firmware v3.0-r58362 std (09/09/24). I have a USB stick plugged into the USB/eSATA port in the back.

When I try to access the share with or without the username and password on iOS Files, GNOME Nautilus (Fedora), or KDE Dolphin (Fedora), I can see the RouterShare folder, but I consistently get some sort of permission denied error when trying to open it. Dolphin actually shows the share files, but the dialogue asking for a username and password just keeps popping up no matter how many times I enter them (or leave them blank and just click OK), and clicking Cancel means I don't have permission to do anything with the files I can see.[/img]

should work if you remove the user wilbur.
I myself tried Samba with User/Password but never got it to work. Seems to be an ongoing issue if you search the forum.

It would appear that no one is interested in using Samba. This problem has existed for about a year but it hasn't been understood why the problem affects all Debian-based versions of Linux... I'm still with build 53633. This is the last build where Samba works correctly

That doesn’t make sense. Firstly, Samba is by far the most popular network accessible storage system, even on Linux. Secondly, there are no Debian-based systems in the equation here; DD-WRT doesn’t appear to be a child distro from my research, and Fedora is famously Red Hat Enterprise Linux based, not Debian or Ubuntu.
Fedora replaced the "free" "community" version of Red Hat when it went Enterprise. So, your statement is backwards. Fedora is the development platform for RHEL. This happened ~20 years ago or so. "I was there" ...
Well, can you at least agree that it’s not Debian based?
Right. Don’t know how to say this, but I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I did mean to convey that Fedora was based on RHEL, not the other way around.

Just to be clear, RHEL forks from Fedora. Silverblue (previously CentOS) forks from RHEL.
With that said, Fedora 39 connects fine to three of my DD-WRT routers running Samba. All with a username and password. Two MX4300s and one EA8500. All running r58662. _________________ - Linksys EA8500: I-Gateway, WAP/VAP 5ghz only. Features: VLANs, Samba, WG, Entware - r60xxx

I’ll apply that current build, but can you post your settings?

Of course.
The EA8500 is able to share the root of both shares without issue. The MX4300s can only share a subdir for some odd reason. Just thought to mention this in case you run into this oddity.

The first difference I noticed is that your folder paths do not go to /tmp/mnt. How would I direct to a connected USB media with your settings, or is the media under those?
