What channels are you using? Try manual channels 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any other wifi neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Any other wifi signals from near by devices?
Do other devices exhibit this same issue?

However, several times a day, it will lose the wifi connection. All the other devices connected to the Orbi are fine.
Is anyone else having this type of issue?
