When I view cameras from my Android phone connected to 4G LTE, perfect streaming.... however, when I connect my phone to WiFi, camera buffers every few seconds. My phone connects via 5 Ghz WiFi and typically still receives about 30-35 down. .. so still should not be a bandwidth issue.

I've seen that, too. Can't explain it but it could well be the difference in path used by each connection. Congestion over some point in the Internet that cell service bypasses could be the answer or maybe cell is even buffering for you. I have no idea which, if either, would be the answer. You could try using traceroute from both devices to arlo.netgear.com could provide some clues.

Don't know what phone your using, but I have seen that issue. ... In my case it was the phone.
Obv the problem resides some where in your wifi setup vs app ( reguardless of how much it can put out ) since it works on 4G.
But, can't tell you why. See if you can kick the wifi to 2.4ghz only and test again
I found from testing 3 Android phones ( on wifi only ) that quailty wifi streaming needs like a min of 1ghz/dual processor.
On the phone that was older/slower it was buffering a lot ( spinning wheel ) tho it was visable.
The more cams you try to stream at same time only makes it worse.
Contact Netgear for trouble ticket, maybe the techs may have a better idea.
