Airport Extreme connection problems

Every time something changes on my Airport Extreme, I lose connection on my iPod touch, iPhone 4 and Nintendo Wii. The last time this happened, I had briefly unplugged the Airport and nothing would connect to it other than my iMac and Macbook Pro. It fixed itself after round a week and a half. This time, I updated the firmware on it (the light was flashing amber to remind me) and I'm having the problem again. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Serial Number for the Airport: 6F9420EMAQC

PS I have already complained to Apple.

Also, when it does work, it doesn't work completely. I can't use certain features on the iPod touch and the iPhone. For example, I can never use FaceTime and notifications never work. If I go to another WiFi hotspot then it will work there and will work back at home for about a week but then it will stop working again.

I know that's really two questions but I suspect they are related. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
I guess I was a little unclear. When I tap the network, which is still visible, it says 'unable to join network'. Except on the Wii, where the network doesn't appear at all.
 
The 5ghz network has never shown up on the iPod touch or the iPhone. Should I try turning it off?
 
Damn, I've forgotten how!

EDIT:

Don't worry, got it. Rechecking now.

EDIT 2:

Some guy on another forum just solved it for me. I set the channel manually. Thanks for all your time and help :)
