About once or twice a day, the Wi-Fi connection on my machine will either 'reset' (drop then reconnect in a second), or drop completely and remain greyed-out until i reselect the network. This doesn't happen often, but when it does it stops time machine backup or benchmark... or a video just freezes. My 12" MacBook (which this machine replaces) did not do this, and this machine's settings are migrated from that one. Any thoughts on troubleshooting?

Thx in advance.
 
Does this happend when you use an USB-C hub? Some of them seem to cause trouble with the WIFI-connection on the 2.4Ghz band.

No hub, but has been plugged in and charging at the time, although I'm pretty sure it's occurred on battery power as well. I've 'renewed lease' to see if that helps... will have to see as the occurrences are few and far between. Thanks.
