> May I ask why smbclient cannot enable multi-channel?
smbclient is a client-side utility looks like not support multichannel yet.

An alternative for client-side usage is linux kernel 6.x cifs.ko:

Use command 'mount.cifs' with option '-o multichannel' should work, here 
is a great tutorial with more infotmation:

Notice the linux kernel version, latest linux distribution like Ubuntu and
Debian with linux kernel 6.x should be fine to enable cifs.ko with 
multichannel support.

Ubuntu 23.10, linux-6.5

Fedora 39, linux-6.5
