Just did factory reset. Set IP, password, turned off P2P, set internal time server, enabled Motion Detection and SMD, enabled audio, set frame rate and interval to 15/15 bitrate to 8192, sub stream to 15/15 bitrate to 512, remove alarm and snapshot so its only recording video to SD Card, formatted SD Card, turned off illuminator since its setup in my home office looking out a window currently, enabled WDR at setting of 5. I will update everyone as to the results. I did find that running Edge in IE mode seemed to work ok since I don't have any computers in that network that can actually run IE anymore. It was definitely more responsive and less buggy than regular Edge or Chrome was.
