Apple TV and iOS products not staying connected.
My set up: RAX120 with 2 EX8000's 6 Apple TV's, 9 Apple iOS Devices. 5 AV recivers, Smart TV's 8 PC's, 3 Printer's 6 Amazon echo devices Ring and security cameras Dozens of lighting and c...
Just to add as you have setup 2 other networks and they too suffer there must be something unique that you are doing that is creating an issue.
I don't think so as one of the setups is mostly PCs and androids and work great. Until you introduce an Apple product like an iPhone or iPad and then those devices will end up having problems staying on the network.
The third one is just an RAX 120 with no extenders 2 iMac's, 5 Apple TVs, 3 iPhones and 3 iPads with a no-frills wizard set up on the router and it drops Apple products every few days.
I've yet to have any drops on my Apple stuff on the 120 no matter what I try with the settings.

I watched the channel drop on several WiFi scanners.along with that I noticed access control was not working.
once I reset them via the pin hole at the rear the router performed as it should so there was corruption which created the issue.

RAX 120 still droping. I did the full reset on the rear of the router. Updated to 122 and still not working . I did the reset and kept it mostly at the defaults. On the Apple TV it'll come up, no network connection detected. If you go into the Apple TV settings it will show that the IP address is there but the subnet and DNS fields are all blank. Forgetting the network and reconnecting to the network solves the problem until it happens a day or two later.
Did you ever get this issue resolved? I have something almost exactly the same:
