Shield TV not connecting to Windows network shares

Since installing the latest NVidia Shield Experience (V6) on my first gen Shield TV (not pro) I have not been able to connect to any of my home network media shares. I can easily verify that the username and password I am using are correct, but the Shield TV continues to very quickly say it can't connect: "Connection failed - Incorrect username or password".

I'm sick of this, the shares I want to use were working prior to the Shield Experience update, and now they aren't. I have gone through the Windows 7 Enterprise settings and nothing seems to be wrong there. Why would it work once, but no longer?
