Bluetooth headphones doesn't work properly

Hi!

I installed a new bluetooth headphones and I connect it corretly. The problem is that when I use Internet the conection is not good enough (e.g youtube's videos have lag, the audio has glitches). I think that it could be an interference with the band range of wifi and bluetooth.
I need some help to solve this problem.
Thanks.

If you can switch your wifi/router to a 5GHz band that will prevent conflicts the best. Other measures depend on your wifi chip what's the card/chipset/driver in use here?

You have to do that at the router and is dependent upon the router.  Usually it is done through a web interface at the web address for most consumer grade routers.
When you do a site survey from your computer, do you see a 5GHz band entry for your router already?  I set mine up to have different SSIDs for the high and low bands.
