[Samba] Error was Transport endpoint is not connected

Did you try changing smb.conf on the NAS to be port 139 only?

Also, it seems that 55 GB should not take one hour to copy (55 GBytes is 
440 Gbit, and at 1 Gbit/sec  and 60 secs / min, the transfer sohuld take 
about minutes-  at least in theory.)

I am guessing it is dropping because it tries to reestablish a 
connection part way through the transfer.
