SMB 1,2 or 3 / Sonos music library issues

Does anyone know what SMB protocol EE Routers use please?

I have an EE Smart Router.

I used to play my music library via a separate hard drive plugged into the USB port on the back of my router. This then gave me access to play 000's of songs via sonos.....frustratingly, it no longer works.

I understand that because of security issues for smb1 , sonos along with many others don't allow their stuff to run with this. I'm trying to rule in/out if this may be the issue.

As an addition, does anyone know if any of the EE Routers use smb2 or above?

Thank you

I called the EE helpdesk and was told that the USB port is only designed for maintenance use, and in effect it was not supported for users.

They were confusingly talking only about the latest, SH+, & this does not apply to earlier EE routers.
