vlc or iperf causing packet loss

$

I have attempeted to use VLC to stream video through both an ERX and ER Pro. Both times, as soon as the connection is made, I receive a few dropped packets and the video stops playing. Occassionally I can get the video to play for a minute or two. Then dropped packets.

 

I tested with the iperf3. If I test the speed 3 or 4 times in a row, I will see the same packet loss and the test starts to fail. 

 

My setup is basic. 2 interfaces being used on the same router. A single computer on each interface acting as an iperf server or VLC server, then a single client on the other interface.

 

Am I just out running the routers? I set the systems back to default and only configured the interfaces. Two different types of routers. Multiple computers, and multiple cables.
