ASUS TUF 4200 and iPhones

Our household is pulling hairs with our iPhone 15s dropping from the internet very frequently while on Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi connection stays on, but loading content gets interrupted). Any ideas what settings to try? The logs keep repeating the following:

If you're using the latest firmware, version 3.0.0.4.388_33903, this is likely the cause of the connection issues. There have also been multiple reports of similar problems on other MediaTek-based routers running the same firmware version. You can either roll back to the previous version or wait for a fix (if this fix ever happens).
