I am using a TP-Link usb wifi adapter, model no: TL-WN722N which has a natively supported chipset on kali. Every 5-20 minutes the connection will randomly drop and I have to unplug and plug it back in.
Code:
sudo iwconfig wlan1
wlan1     IEEE 802.11bgn  ESSID:"Shirley2"  
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.437 GHz  Access Point: 38:2C:4A:E4:0A:58

          Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=67/70  Signal level=-43 dBm  
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
