Seen this when a router was updated and WPA3 got turned on. Had to turn it off for cameras to come back online.

For most 2.4GHz consumer stuff WPA2 is all they support, even a 3 and 2 mixed network will break so many things.

Maybe a neighbour started using the same channels as you and having the same problems, and has now changed to different channels.

Its a mystery but because Alexa commends ring and my ip cameras had problems could have been slingshot changing something or is it two degrees? anyway crisis over back to "alexa turn on the bedroom light"
