The problem may not be that you changed the channel but the interference. In my case I further found that one of my neighbours has a router that is set to auto-hop channels and two others are using channel bonding in 2.4 Ghz. Together this seems to create problems that the Squeezebox wifi setup

The wireless interference from neighbour sounds the most plausible explanation. Will look into that with the wireless diagnostics. Still its a shame the squeezeboxes are so jumpy on wireless. I've not had headaches from any of my wireless gear otherwise. Anyway will look at the wireless

These problems preceed the existence of powerline in the house. I actually bought the powerline because at first I though some of the squeezebox problem was due to a weak signal strength, as my main router/modem is in the basement. And that allowed me to deploy the main unit as 2.4 ghz only.

Ok, so this gets even weirder. I applied the OBSS disable on the 2.4ghz-only AP on the router/modem and rebooted it and the squeezeboxes. They still wont connect to that AP. So basically that didnt solve it But meanwhile now all of a sudden, the squeezeboxes will connect to the 2.4 + 5 AC
