Wireless Access Point AX1800 (WAX204) keeps dropping

I bought a NETGEAR WiFi 6 Wireless Access Point AX1800 Dual Band Access Point (WAX204) last April. I use it as an access point. In the last couple of months, my Android phone, Windows laptop and Android tablet all keep dropping off the WiFi every minute or so. About 30 secs to a minute later they connect again. This makes wifi unusable.
If I unplug the access point, and plug it in again about 10 secs later, then wait for it to restart, the problem goes away for a while.
Can this be fixed? How? Or should I return the product to you?

@michaelkenward replied to my original post with a question:

Lots of things - the Internet router is a TP Link ER605 Omada Gigabit Multi-WAN VPN Router. I would have bought a Netgear one, but I couldn't find a suitable project.
