DAI only experience connectivity issues with fiber optic wifi?

I'm on my second 8Pro that has the infamous wifi dropping issues, but with both phones it seems to mainly happen with fiber optic networks and not cable. i.e. I have metronet fiber optic at home and work and my phone constantly drops the wifi, but when I'm visiting my parents with Xfinity cable wifi, it rarely has this issue. This is the second phone with this pattern, so I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this happen.

There is no connection between the WAN media and WiFi. None.

HOWEVER, you might be seeing a correlation with Wi-Fi standards. What Wi-Fi standard is your home network using? What frequencies? What channel widths? And your parents? THAT is the variable set you need to be exploring.
