Mac Mini M4 losing Synology nas connection overnight

So far I believe I have turned off anything that could make my Mac sleep but so far I am at a loss as to what is causing me to need to reboot the mac every single day. No wake on lan, no sleep being allowed. Using smb to connect to the share on my nas. It's driving me nuts!

Just purchase an app to do it AutoMounter / AutoMounter - Update

Or search the Internet trying the 100+ different ways users have said to do it until you find a way that works for you.

Apparently, macOS has problems keeping SMB shares mounted!

Found a github project if you want to try it (I can't vouch for it) GitHub - KeepCoolCH/SMBMounter: Automatically mount, reconnect, and manage SMB network drives in MacOS · GitHub

I think automounter is most likely what I'll do. I've probably tried 50 or more of the 100 ways people say works. Thanks! I may look at github.
