Well nothing on the camera system... So I had issues with other stuff that were resolved, some easy, some not so... because my primary on the google was 192.168.86.1 vs 192.168.1.1. I have a lot of fixed IP's because of Control4 etc. and the only thing that would never work besides this issue is my iAqualink pool controller. It would NEVER connect wifi and I ended up having to install a point to point wireless bridge to get that to work.
So I just had to changed the IP config to reset the fixed IP of the PC.

Could you confirm the location of the video server and the PC that wants to access the video server:
- With both computers on the same LAN, Port Forwarding through the router is not involved.
- If the need is to access the video server remotely, then Port Forwarding is required and all sorts of questions come up, such as:
- Is the ISP device a modem or a combination modem/router?
- Does the Luxriot server use UDP to automatically open ports for access?

Both of these devices are connected with Ethernet cables. WiFi has nothing to do with the issue.
Also, both Google Mesh and Netgear Orbi use one WiFi SSID for both 2.4 and 5G WiFi channels.
