I have a 4 + Boss and I don't recall experiencing any WiFi issues.
There is a VLI firmware update for the 4 that I had applied but I'm not sure it contained any WiFi fixes. It was mainly for improving power consumption and reducing heat.

One way to troubleshoot is to first get a good WiFi connection then connect an ethernet cable, then move the Pi farther than 1 meter away from the Router when it apparently loses WiFi connectivity. At this point since you should be connected via Ethernet you could examine /var/log/syslog, dmesg and your Router WiFi logs to see if there is any clue as to what might be happening.
Another option is to install the latest Linux kernel. moOde 641 ships with 4.19.83 and the latest is 4.19.97. There have been a zillion bug fixes between these two releases. https://github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-firmware/commits/master
