Files App access to Samba shares on Asus RT-AX68U router shown read only

Files App access (iOS 16.1) to Samba shares on Asus RT-AX68U router shown as read only. Found posts from 2021 mentioning that after people upgraded iOS to 14.5, that issue has started. Has that been settled? Could anyone share if there is a workaround?

Can’t Connect to SMB share from iOS 17 Following upgrade to IPadOS 17, I can no longer connect to my Samba shares. Worked fine before upgrade. Error message “The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred” Ipad 7th generation. Server samba version 4.9.5-Debian. Can still connect from Linux, Windows 11 and Android clients. Could this be a bug in the new files app?

smb write access not working after updating to iOS 18 I use some Samba/SMB shares, mainly on a home server and also from my router (Fritz Box). Both SMB shares now have access issues with iOS 18. On an iPhone 13 with iOS 17.7 there is no problem having read and write access to the same folder and shared folder, but on my iPhone 14 with iOS 18 I only have ready access... I tried to set up the connection completely from the beginning and also set the minimum protocol version on the server side to SMB3, but nothing changed.
