is DVR processor speed important for remote viewing?

I have 3mbps up constant but my DVR only allows 2 channels of RJ45 960H cameras or it begins to lag. I need to upgrade to a unit that has greater than 6 Audio input for microphones. I don't mind spending a little more to get a great unit but I am unsure how to compare them. I am looking at the Lorex 960H 24 Channel unit with 8 audio inputs.

I believe I decided on a Tribrid system now I am back to comparing different DVR options.

If your DVR is to blame, check out the DVR allow you to feed sub-stream, not main stream video file, for your remote viewing. It usually takes 1 Mbps for your mainstream for compressing 1 Channel 960H video.
