Hello Robert-H
I would check the Apple app store on your I phone for a free wifi analytics app and try to find the best wireless channel to use in your home and change the router to that channel see if that improves the signal and the drop outs.

Hi Darren!
I wasn't able to find a free iPhone app that would find the best wireless channel to use. I believe there is one for Android, but I ended up using the Wireless Diagnostics tool on my wife's MacBook Pro. It suggested channel 11 for 2.4Ghz, so I made the change over the weekend. We didn't spend enough time at home to notice a difference, so I will get back with you later this week to let you know if the problem continues.
Thank you,
Robert

It looks like changing the channel to 11 resolved the problem. We haven't had an issue for about a week. Thanks for the help!!
