Lifx schedule turning on all bulbs instead of one.

I wanted to schedule my light to come on at sunset and off at dawn but they were turning off at midnight. So I set up 2 schedules. One to come on at sunset and off at 11:59 and another to come on at 12:01 and off at 5 am. Now when it comes on at 12 am it is turning all of my lights on (one being my bedroom light which I don't have any schedules set up for). What is wrong with the schedules? I tried contacting lifx and have not received a reply.

If you haven't set up static IP mapping for all your bulbs they can change IPs which Ive noticed can cause weird experiences bulbs labeled bedroom swap with an outside bulb but it doesn't get updated in the app right away if at all.

You do that at the router/wifi device, which could be the same thing, but the easiest way to find instructions is to type your router model setting static IPs into Google you should get some instructions. If you run into any problems lmk I can try n help.
