Router refusing Sonos connection

I have a USB HDD connected to my Archer VR1600 router, which is shared and accessible on my Mac:

//ipaddr/volume(sda1)/..

When I attempt to add that path to my Sonos library config and supply the share credentials, it whines that ‘the computer (ie my router) refused to let Sonos connect to it’.

[update:] I’m using the S1 version of Sonos software as the device is a Connect/ZonePlayer.

Background: our LaCie NAS is about to die, and it makes sense to move the the data from it to a Google cloud account.

I want to keep a local cache of our audio files for streaming through the Sonos Connect.
