Raspberry 3B+ wifi crashing

Hello , im experiencing playback problems with videos on an SMB share. The video will keep playing normally for half an hour or so and then the device will stop the video , wait around 2 minutes then pop the invalid argument window.It also stops responding to pings , i have to disable enable wireless for the device to come online.
Here are some of the system logs

Hi,

Unfortunately logs snippets do not tell us a lot, a full debug log would be more useful; details can be found here:

Regards Tom.

here are some other logs.

Hi,

These are not debug logs, please see the link provided on how to enable and how to upload logs to omsc’s paste server.

Thanks Tom,

Sry heres another try

Hi,

This isn’t a full debug log, and more importantly its missing ifconfig and being as it a network issue; its kinda required.

Please re-read the link or reproduce the issue with debug logs and issue the following from the command line:

grab-logs -A

Thanks Tom.

last logs i post , sry if my earlier ones were not helpful

Hi,

Have you tried changing the wifi channel on your router?

Thanks Tom.

The log shows this message:

Jul 21 10:38:36 abcd wpa_supplicant[418]: wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=cc:2d:e0:c2:89:a7 reason=3 locally_generated=1

Looking around, a reason code of 3 seems to mean that “The access point went offline, deauthenticating the client.”

This might mean that there is a problem with your router/access point, the signal strength or perhaps even with the Pi3B+'s firmware. Certainly try Tom’s suggestion of changing the channel and see if that helps.

Can you tell us whether 5 GHz WiFi has ever worked correctly on your Pi3B+?

Seeing as i have no problems with other 5ghz devices and the signal is strong from my router, I suspect this is a firmware issue , because when i go into network settings the pi is still connected to the AP, i just disable enable the interface and its fine after.

Maybe be try a Raspbian install to see how that compares
