CALLING NETWORK GURUS - PLEASE HELP A BROTHER OUT! Bounty available for any hero that suggests something leading to a fix!

Last week my home network suddenly started showing certain devices as 'connected / no internet access'. It seems to only be affecting mobile phones (iPhone and Androids), tablets and the TV. My Linux machine and Macbook are not being affected whatsoever, nor are any ethernet devices like my nodes and security cameras.

When these devices show the error, there is nothing apparent that causes it. There is also nothing apparent that allows them to connect again and function normally (for a short time at least).

Today my ISP sent me a new router, but that did not fix the issue. There has been no devices added or removed from the network in recent weeks that coincide with the problem starting. Finally, I tried setting a static IP on the router for one of the problem devices, but that made no difference.

Wouldn't personally use ISP router, get a good router that you can customize and control, use ISP router for it's internet access only.

Been on my to-do list for years, but I fucking despise network shit so have put it off for way too long. Perhaps this is my comeuppance.
