That is almost certainly your problem. Test it with a wired connection
to verify that it's not a problem with your servers hardware. Wireless
networks in close proximity to each other need to be on different
channels, and not just different, but channels that don't overlap.
i.e. channel 1 and 2 is not a good choice, because they overlap and
will interfer. In most countries, channels 1, 6 and 11 are good
choices. If the SSID is the same on all APs then your users will be
able to roam seamlessly.
