Can't access password protected smb share

I have a Netgear Nighthawk R7000 Router with an attached HDD which I'm trying to access with the ReadyShare feature. I've created 3 shared folders:

1. no_pass (no password required)


2. pass_write (password required for write access)


3. pass_read (password required for read/write access)

The problem is that while I can access folder 1 (no password) fine, I can't connect to 2 or 3 in finder because I'm getting a permission denied error. When connecting to server, I've tried each of the following:

• http://smbreadyshare(/share_name)


• http://smbadmin@readyshare(/share_name)


• http://smbadmin:password@readyshare(/share_name)

I've done all the above with cifs and replaced readyshare with the ip address but while 'no_pass' will mount without a problem, 'pass_read' and 'pass_write' give

Note: smb://readyshare or smb://192.168.1.1 will both show a list of the shared folders but again, only 'no_pass' will mount. The others give the same error above.

I can connect to all the folders using http or ftp so it doesn't seem to be an issue with the shares...

Any idea what's going on here?
