I have this issue also: Wifi drops randomly but I think it happens only when 
I'm plugged off from the charging cable?
When I plug it back in the wifi works again.

I did debug the problem with ping and it seems that when I'm on battery
I do not receive some packets or I receive some with delay but as soon
as I plug the charging cable back I receive those missed packets with
huge delay.

When I plug off my charging cable my syslog shows:
Jun 18 22:34:07 xps kernel: [ 9584.125828] ahci 0000:00:1f.2: port does not 
support device sleep

And when I plug it in again I get:

And this happens only at my home. When I'm at the office, wifi works just fine.
With my previous laptop with Ubuntu installed I hadn't any problems with wifi 
and my home router
It is Netwjork 150Mbps -router with WPA2 enabled and it's pretty old one but no 
one else in my home is experiencing these kind of problems and there are 4 
other people using the same wlan.

I already have A04 BIOS and sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo
dmidecode -s bios-release-date returns

A04
