I can almost guarantee it is due to the backhaul signal from the router to the satellite dropping. Several users have this issue and open support tickets but Netgear hasn't addressed it. If you use an app like Wi-Fi Analyzer, you can watch the 2.4 and 5Ghz backhaul signals frequently drop. They are the ones with no SSID.
It's probably happening much more than 3x per day but it is very quick and doesn't always last long enough to drop every device.

Yes this issue has been around for a while happens in AP mode as well, keep telling myself Firmware fix is coming but thus far useless Firmware releases.

Well that gives me hope it will be fixed via firmware at some point as it doesn't seem to be an issue specific to my setup...here's hoping since other than that, the speed and coverage have been great.
