RAX50 Smb version supported

Does anyone know which Smb versions are supported by the RAX50/AX5400? Tech support was unable to provide an answer and I don’t want to end up in the same situation that I currently have with my WNR4500/N9000 where it only supports Smb 1.0. Thanks in advance!

    Do you have a particular problem that you want to fix/anticipate?

     

    Something to do with ReadySHARE, for example?

      I had an issue a while back where I was trying to set up my first NAS, can't remember if I was trying to use ready share, but I wasn't able to because I kept getting a message about my router not supporting smb 2.0/3.0.

        What sort of NAS? People attach that label to all manner of network devices.

         

        SMB1 was an issue with USB devices on ReadySHARE.

         

        I don't recall seeing any questions here about SMB in Ethernet NAS devices.

         

        Does Ethernet involve SMB protocols?

         

        NAS problems are usually best resolved by talking to the people who made the NAS device.
