I've done zigbee channel changes twice on different coordinators. Once on Hubitat (from 18 to 15), and the second time on zigbee2mqtt (from 15 to 25). On both occasions, some devices followed the coordinator. But an equal number needed to be reset and rejoined.
This is my guess. I believe that Zigbee channel 11 is what is reported when Zigbee crashes (from unfortunate personal experience), but isn’t actually a channel change.
A bad device might be spamming the hub to the point that the radio can’t join devices or communicate with anything. I once had a Peanut plug send 76,000 events in a few hours on a SmartThings hub. That hub’s Zigbee devices wouldn’t respond and I couldn’t add new devices until I figured it out.
Try unplugging or otherwise cutting power to your repeaters and reboot. Then see if you can add devices before slowly powering up repeaters.
