The idea is you post the log, to avoid having to answer all the questions ;)

Handbrake works quite well with network resources, at least with Linux and Windows shares. I do it all the time, with both the source AND destination on my NAS, even while the same workstation is running MakeMKV to rip other disks.

Usually, issues have to do with user permissions on the LAN.

Logs, of course, would probably show what your LAN is complaining about.

Rendering video over WiFi to a NAS is something I don't recommend unless you're in the same room, and working over a dedicated channel.
