Archer Doesn't know it's connected to the Internet

Model:
Archer VR2800
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 0.3.0 0.9.1 v006c.0 Build 170809 Rel.42095n
My Archer VR2800 has started to behave very oddly. Right now I am using it to access the internet, but the device's utility tool says it is disconnected from the internet.
- I have it configured as a bridge wired to a Vodafone router.
- All my wireless devices are configured to connect to the Archer, not directly to the Vodafone router.
The Archer's utility tool can see all wireless devicesUPDATE: The list of connected devices is constantly changing, with some connected devices no showing in Acher's list of connected devices.- The Vodafone router's utility tool can also see them on the network
- However, the wireless devices keep losing and reconnecting to the internet, but not at the same time.
They remain connected to the Archer.UPDATE: Sometimes they remain connected to the Archer, other times they cannot connect. - To test where the internet connection is failing, I have connected my laptop to the Archer via ethernet cable. This connection is working. Therefore I am accessing the internet via the Archer, but the Archer's utility tool says there is no internet traffic passing through it in either direction - which is clearly incorrect.
- I have rebooted it several times.
- I have updated the firmware, using the correct version for my hardware version.
Any advice to rectify the issue would be most welcome, please. - Or is it time to put my Archer to rest?
Thanks
