Hi DarrenM,
That's a good question but unfortunately all of those devices that I've had issues with will only run on the 2.4ghz channel. I don't believe I've ever had anything missing off of the 5ghz list but there's usually only one or two things on that list, so whether it's just that there's fewer chances to lose something on that list or if it's exclusive to the 2.4ghz network I really can't say.
As an update though, I did end up exchanging that router/modem for a new one of the same model and it is doing the exact same thing. And I have even had a few occasions where my phone showed up in the "wired" list instead of on of the wireless lists. But I honestly don't remember if I had it connected to the 2.4 or 5ghz network when it did that.
