During my attempt to run bookworm over the last 3 months I had the problem of the wifi dropping as well.
Couldn't be arsed to find out why. Real life gets in the way.
My Hammer / nut solution is run a cron job every 5 min.
If I can't ping the router then    sleep 10
If I still can't ping the router sleep 20
If I still can't ping the router sleep 30
If I still can't ping the router reboot.

I suspect this won't help you but all my pi zeroes are headless and this does (did) work. See my bookworm resolution in the other thread.

This is a very poor solution. If you must do an automatic reboot when network connectivity fails, install and configure the watchdog package.
 Getting to the bottom of the problem is the best thing to do.

Apropos that, since the more powerful power supply, my Bookworm on the PXZW has been rock solid on Wifi.
