Pasting the bulk of another post that has now been archived; no solution was offered and this is persistent despite all posted suggestions and multiple factory resets:
Internet connectivity is randomly but regularly dropping on my mesh network with the new Pros (all devices).
Our iPad devices are relied on for baby monitors, and the connection drops unpredictably. This causes gaps in the ability to monitor an infant.
Nest devices sporadically change from solid white to blinking yellow. There are no changes to the surrounding environment when this happens.
On mobile service devices, I receive both full drops and random notifications that I’m connected to WiFi but no Internet.
On MacBook, it just drops out intermittently connected to the network. Zoom meetings experience unstable connections during meetings.
Three different smart TVs experience the same issue until it resolves itself automatically or I restart the TV.
Nintendo Switch has similar connectivity drops.
Automated tests are all fine: mesh connections are excellent, speed to modem tests return high speeds (even if currently a device can’t connect), and restarting the WiFi system usually fixes it.
No issues with the modem (fiber) connection during these outages either.
Toggled IPv6 on/off, reset ports, etc., but issues still persist.
I couldn’t find any new solutions in the forum despite high number of similar complaints both here and in other major forums, so adding one more for Google’s attention on it.

I believe this is something that will require a software update. I have noticed similar behavior. I have installed a tp link smart outlet on the primary node, and set it to power off at a specific time, and power on one minute later. That seems to have fixed the issue. These outlets are cost effective (usually less than 20 bucks) , so I would suggest this as a stop gap if you want one!
