Jolla C has strange behavior with WLAN and mobile data connection

My Jolla C shows a strange behavior when I´m on my desk at home and connected to Wifi. It has a pretty good signal connection (two to three bars on icon) but unfortunately the phone reconnects from time to time to Wifi again. (The Wifi-Station is in the next room 7 meter far away.)

So for example my screen is on and shows the notification screen. I can see it reconnects in irregular offsets. If the screen is off it goes on and I can see it is reconnecting again.

When I leave the building the phone is struggling between Wifi and mobile data connection. A few meter distance from home most of the time there is no data connection. Wifi nor Mobile Data. It seems the phone can´t decide what connection it should prefer. When I shut off Wifi manually it connects to mobile data and suddenly I get Push Notifications from eg. Twitter or my messengers.

Right now I´m sitting in a day office, connected to Wifi. I receive Push Notifications, no flashing screen, no reconnecting...

How can I figure out how strong really the Wifi connection on my phone is? Why it is always reconnecting? What I knew is the Wifi-Station here at the day office is a very old model, not the newest technology while the one at my home is a newer one.

Any suggestions or same experience? Because I think it isn´t a bug.

EDIT: I am retagging as bug because the answers confirm that it is due to wrong handling of rekeying. I hope this is enough to get it on Jolla's to-do list. --Federico
