A full re-install may happen if hell freezes over, but not before.

I did it without re-starting yesterday and got a new 169 IP address, but no luck with the shares.

At some point I might have a go at inspecting packets with Wireshark to see what's actually going on, but for the time being I'll make do with FTP. :(

<pointing out the bleedin' obvious>

Are you sure the Windows box hasn't been assigned the same IP as the NAS?

That requires me to determine why my "Turn Windows features on or off" list is blank, of which there's a variety of possible causes/solutions and it's not the common ones. :(

(Or locate a third-party client, but a quick check of the options didn't uncover anything acceptable; everyone recommends the Microsoft one.)

Doesn't Windows assign a 169 address when it can't actually get a "good" address from DHCP?  I think you really need to use a different IP range.

Another thing, did you say you're using a wireless adapter for internet and a wired adapter to only access the NAS?  If that's the case, I've had times where the adapters come up in the wrong order and one doesn't work.  I would disable the wireless adapter and try to access the NAS.  What happens is Windows looks for the NAS over the wireless adapter and of course it won't find it there.
