Wifi keeps dropping in Windows 10 (BootCamp) on new tbMBP 15"

Keeps dropping and reconnecting. Pretty sure it's not the wifi because on MacOS and my iPhone, both have stable connections. It's probably a driver issue, anyone know a fix?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12.1), 2016 15" w/ Touchbar

I may have barked too soon. I am seeing dropouts again.... My apologies for false hope. Weird as the connection was stable for a long time, then it started playing up 😟


I shall clarify:

I believe when you install itunes for Windows a component of it is the Apple Software Update Utility.

this utility in Windows flagged that there was a hardware driver update from Apple for the bluetooth chipset.
