Help needed as recurrent dropping of my avatar from bunch despite power being more than adequate

It is not unusual for owners of the Kickr Core 2 to get better stability from Bluetooth than WiFi pairing. It’s also not rare to find that a PC struggles to support all the Bluetooth traffic when using virtual shifting and a lot of stuff paired up. The usual fix for that is to disable the on-board Bluetooth adapter and use a USB dongle such as the TP-Link UB500. I have seen that happen even on brand new gaming PCs.
