Router doing odd things!

My EE broadband has been working fine for the past 12 months, no problems.   I had grouped all my devices and everything was working fine.   Until about 3 weeks ago.   I noticed my Ring doorbell camera and spot camera kept loosing connection.  

The only way to fix this was to restart the router.   But after a few hours they would again lose connection and not reconnect.

I logged into the app and checked my broadband status.   It said I now had over 80 devices associated with my broadband.   Checking this I noticed it had duplicated most of my existing devices but marked them as offline for the past couple of months.  So now for example instead of 1 iPhone I now have 3, two of which are offline.   

 

I turned on the compatibility mode for 2.4Ghz only and reconnected the Ring doorbells but they are still failing, and I still have all the extra devices which are offline and have been duplicated.   Its as is my router has updated and its screwed everything up.

Anyone else experienced similar?

Count me in - wondered why all my Ring cameras were dropping even though I turned on the compatibility mode for 2.4Ghz.  Its also duplicated devices on my network and marked them as offline.  

@DoobyDoo1 Let the Forum know if the Fixed channel is holding it steady for you, turn your Comp off unless needed for something else.
