Why does that make such a difference?!

Thanks all so much again for helping me!!
The biggest issue with low-latency connections is that when the AP switches channels, there is a pause while the clients follow the channel change announcement and switch over to the new channel. Newer APs (not sure how new or which ones, honestly) can fairly rapidly switch channels to avoid contention. The algorithms that control that can also end up buggy and misbehave under unexpected conditions, so setting it to a single-channel will avoid all those issues. The downside is that if you end up with a lot of noise on a specific channel, it cannot switch away, though that's usually not such a big problem in residential setups.

Glad a simple fix got you sorted out!
