Not enough info to diagnose. What hardware do you have? Wireless or LAN? What kind? What version of PCBSD? Security settings? Have you tried the PCBSD forum? They have a "Knowledge Base" with a lot of that kind of stuff for newbies. Go to the command line and type "dmesg" and <enter> and you should be able to figure out what kind of hardware your system has on it. You can get more info about your LAN or wireless card by entering "ifconfig". That may get you started.

smbutil
SMBUTIL(1) BSD General Commands Manual SMBUTIL(1)
NAME
smbutil -- Interface to SMB requester
SYNOPSIS
smbutil [-hv] command [-options] [args]
DESCRIPTION
The smbutil command used to control SMB requester and issue various commands.
There are two types of options - global and local to specified command.
The global options are:
-h Print short help message.
-v Verbose output.
The commands and local options are:
crypt [password]
Slightly encrypt clear text password to use it in the ~/.nsmbrc file. The encrypted password starts with '$$1' symbols. Warning: the
encryption function is very weak and intented only to hide clear text password. If password is ommited from command line, program
will prompt for one.
help command
Print usage information about command.
lc List active connections and their parameters.
login [-connection options] //[workgroup;][user[password]@] server[/share]
Login/attach to the specified server and/or share as user. This command will create and authenticate connection to an SMB server,
and will leave it active after exit. Thus, one can login only once and then use other SMB commands without authentication procedure
and additional connections. For the description of [-connection options] see mount_smbfs(8) command (all uppercase options are con-
nection options).
logout //[workgroup;][user[password]@] server[/share]
Logout/detach from the specified server and/or share as user. This command will destroy connection created by login command. A con-
nection may not be closed immediately if it used by other programs.
lookup [-w host] name
Resolve given name to IP address. NetBIOS name server can be directly specified via [-w] option.
print [-connection options] //[workgroup;][user[password]@] server[/share] file
Send given file to the specified queue on the remote server. If file is '-', then standard input will be used.
status server
Resolve given server (IP address or DNS name) to NetBIOS workgroup and system name.
view [-connection options] //[workgroup;][user[password]@] server
List resources avaliable on the specified server for the user user.
FILES
~/.nsmbrc keeps description for each connection. See ./examples/dot.nsmbrc for details.
