I have a nas326 connected to the modem; it often happens that when I watch the multimedia content from the smart TV the connection of the TV falls and it is no longer possible to connect to the NAS for a few minutes.
I state that the TV is connected via WiFi.
can anyone give me a solution?

    What is the model of your smart TV?

    What do you mean regarding "the connection of the TV falls and it is no longer possible to connect to the NAS for a few minutes"?
    Does TV use 2.4GHz or 5GHz to connect WiFi? And connection fail means wireless disconnect on your smart TV? After a few minutes, the wireless connection can back?

    If your TV has LAN port, you can check if connected it via Ethernet cable, is it become stable or not.

    the model of tv is Samsung ku6400
    
    1) TV use 2.4GHz
    2) yes, wireless disconnect on your smart TV
    3) after a few minutes the wifi connection returns
    
    not tried with lan because the router is far from the TV;
    I should buy some powerlines but I would like to use wifi.

    It seems that this problem would be related to wireless signal. As you said, the router is far from Samsung Smart TV, it may cause wireless signal too weak, or there has too much 2.4GHz interference in your environment.

    Can you check the signal strength of wireless connection on Samsung Smart TV?

    there is no possibility to check the signal level, there is an icon that indicates the level, and it seems to be less than half.
    I also tried using a wifi repeater but I always have the usual problem.

    Wifi repeater will extend the wifi signal, but it will also decrease the speed of the wifi to a half.
    Have you ever play media from NAS on your phone, when you are in the same area as the smart TV?
    Is there an issue like smart TV?
