(Funny, the same thing happened to my simple dedicated 'bgn' router
purchased last year for the SBs: suddenly one day they wouldn't connect
at all. Had to move the radios to the main house AP. Fortunately, after
a few days, my environment got quiet and the problems were greatly
reduced.)

Looking at your log files, you have a second AP (...34:b1) with the same
SSID on the same frequency with a signal level of -68 dBm. (BTW, very
happy to see the signal levels in dBm instead of 0-255.).

Your connected access point signal level just prior to failure at
2021-04-10T16:10:49 was -67 dBm (...34:30), which is very low, oddly,
nearly the same as your other access point. There is a discrepancy
between the scanned signal level of -63 and the current level of -67.
The last scan was apparently well before the failures and not updated in
the 24 seconds between the earliest (16:10:25) and latest (16:10:49)
scan result entry. After the full reset, the scan results 15 nearby APs.
Quite a difference from the just one shown prior to failure.

Three disconnects in 20 minutes would be about 9 in an hour, not
atypical for heavy interference environments. The recovery time of 49
seconds for the full reset is typical of somewhat weak signal
conditions. Try to improve your signal levels. 

The more recent 0.8.3+ versions have improved reporting, and it is safe
to re-enable the quick reset method, which may or may not improve your
radio's performance.
