Just wanted to add a note here. I had noticed this only happened on my home network, and nowhere else.
I had tried hard-setting the channels and bands but nothing affected it on my Linksys WRT1200AC even with moving it around the house and using extenders. At my co-working space I rarely had the issue on a Netgear Nighthawk.
I replaced the router and added extender with a Nighthawk X10 and Nighthawk X6S mesh extender and things seem to have stopped the drops entirely for me.
I know replacing the router isn't a solution, but thought it might give some ideas as to possibly being in the way the routers and the signals are read by the firmware.
