Sequoia keep losing connection to QNAP NAS (SMB) and finder constantly hanging

Since upgrading to Sequoia, Finder has been having problems finding my (QNAP) NAS, is slow to transfer files when it does find it and drops out quickly. It's driving me insane.


I've restarted my router, my Mac and my NAS - no joy.


Is anyone else experiencing this issue?


edit: I should add, the NAS is working fine (other devices can see it) and I can access it from my Sequoia Mac via it's webpage etc with Safari.

Do you have Apple’s firewall on? Switching it off solved the problem for me.
