If Nautilus is in spatial mode where it does not have a locations bar
or look like a browser then you click File -> Location.

Or you can Connect As Server  -> Drop Down -> Windows Share  and then
fill out the blanks.  This works for me and creates a smb icon for the
share on my desktop.

Networking has worked for me very well in this release of Gnome.
