HI ,
Actually, i m with laptop dell .
The driver wifi is ; Killer(R) wireless-AC 1550i wireless Network Adapter (9560NGW) 160MHz .

AFAIK, support for WPA3 was introduced with Intel's WiFi 6/Wireless-AX adapters. You are using an older WiFi 5/Wireless-AC adapter and I do not believe that WPA3 is supported.

Sorry,

We conducted research on your concern and please be informed that Killer Killer(R) wireless-AC 1550i wireless network adapter (9560) can support WPA3-Personal (also known as WPA3-SAE) and WPA3-Enterprise on Windows® 10. You may check this article, https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000054783/wireless.html for your complete reference.

  • When did the issue first occur?
  • Did you modify your device setup or configuration recently?

Thank you for this response. 
I use a router that works well in wpa3 mode and I tried with another device to connect on this router and everything is good. However, with the NIC still failed:
 STA does not initiate assoc process. 

Always : 
  Can't connect to this network.
