It seems that you are using an old firmware version:

We have already published version -27 for 4.11 and you're still using
version -21.  You can get the latest version from here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/iwlwifi-7265D-27.ucode

We have loads of fixes and improvements in this new version.  And
hopefully it will make your problems go away. ;)

Please try it and let me know how it goes.
