AC Question

I just got an update to Marshmallow on my Samsung Tab S 10.5. Now, when I connect over my wireless network to my file server to play media files, it asks me for my password constantly!!!! Annoying.
I'll log into a directory and it will ask me for my password. Then when I try to get into a subfolder, again with the request for a password. And so on to each and every subfolder. When I back out of a folder guess what? Again with the request for me to enter username and password to access the file serve (an Iomega NAS I should be clear on). With my old OS, 5.x.x I had no problem and it would save my password. But now with MM, it asks to save the password, which I do, but it never saves it.

So of course this is totally annoying and ridiculous. Any help is appreciated.
 
Make sure the file server isn't the thing asking for the password. "Fixing" the device that isn't causing the problem won't fix it.

Moved from the Tab S2 forum to the Tab S 10.5 forum.

Also merged duplicate threads.
