New AP cause slow apps on smartphone
So I recently changed my setpmup from default ISP modem/router to 2 netgear wac 540 AP's.
Since then certain apps on my tablet and smartphone are very slow to open.
There is not issue with connectivity to the AP's I believe. Since the google chrome app on both tablet and smartphone work fine. And my laptop works perfectly fine as well.
I think I'm missing some setting somewhere that is interfering with these apps. The apps in question are mostly streaming services, but also the controls for my smart heating.
I already tried turning the randomized MAC off for tablet and smartphone.
Any suggestions?

Any other Wireless routers on air, or just the two WAC540?
All radios (2.4 GHz and both 5 GHz radios on each WAC540) configured to very different channel sets?
