Network Frame Drops and Instability if I use Auto Bitrate

This has seemed to start after the latest update.

Nearly every time I start up the stream I would immediately be dropping around 65% of frames on the network. I found as a quick fix if I reset the NIC it would stabilize for a random amount of time (sometimes minutes, sometimes hours) but then eventually I would start dropping frames again.

I use Multitrack Video/Enhanced Broadcasting with both bandwidth and tracks set to auto.

After troubleshooting everything I could think of I finally decided to remove Auto from Bandwidth and set it to 10000. As soon as I started the stream we were nice and stable. I stopped the stream, clicked auto back on, and we went back to dropping frames.

If i set the Bandwidth to 12000 (the value that auto seems to try to be reaching) we go back to dropping frames again as soon as the stream starts.

So it seems like perhaps the auto setting is set incorrectly.

I am currently running a test stream at 10K bitrate and I have been stable for 10 minutes. I am going to continue this test for awhile longer to see if I remain stable.
