Normally I would first advice to upgrade to a Samba version that isn't 7
years old. But as this is a embedded system, the situation is a bit
different.

Kai Blin had a good presentation about Samba on µservers and the
problems with recent Samba versions this year at the SambaXP:

Do you have the possibility to put a new Samba version on the box (maybe
cross-compile)? What hardware is in your router?
