Why does my MacBook Pro 15-2018 Catalina (1.15.7) bluetooth driver keep dropping connections?

The bluetooth devices are constantly being dropped and re-connected by the notebook. It appears that the bluetooth services are not stable. How do I fix this?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Bluetooth not available in Catalina Hi there, ever since I updated my MacBook Pro to Catalina 10.15 I'm having Bluetooth issues. There are a lot of suggestions on the internet to tackle the issue, but none seem to work. I've even reinstalled Catalina completely, to no effect. I got it going again briefly when updating to 10.15.2 but i lost Bluetooth again after a few days. Wifi seems out as well. Thanks for any advice, Tom
