    7" tablet suggestion

    All I really do is stream from Plex, Netflix, Amazon, ECT. The Galaxy I have has had issues with wifi since day one. Signal is steady but speed slowly drops to unusable speeds. If I clear cache it sometimes helps. Most time takes a factory reset. About once a week.

    Suggestion for tablet to run a dedicated app.

    MTBF not drastically important. It more a convenience to be able to watch the cameras. Even a older model 10" would be fine. I am just not sure of reliability of a cheap brand name
