I am using MS window version 11 with Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX210 160MHz (driver version: 22.80.1.1). I tried to connect to my wifi 6E (Asus Zenwifi ET8) with no success. Windows unable to see my 6E SSID. I can connect to my 2.4 and 5 GHz channel with no problem. My Samsung phone able to see my 6E SSID and connect to it with no problem. Is it a setting to enable to see 6 GHz channel or need new intel driver?

Hi Andrew,
Have you found a fix for this issue. I am still unable to see the 6GHZ network from my laptop. I have tried updating/downgrading all drivers from the intel site. Changing every suggested setting and I am still unable to see the network from laptop. I am running windows 11 from Canada with WIFI 6E available on my network. I am able to connect to it using my Samsung Galaxy S23 so I now it is there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

I have the same issue as well. AX210 card, does not see the 6 GHz network on Windows 11 unless using driver version 22.50.1.
Interestingly enough if I boot using a ArchLinux ISO, I can see the 6 GHz network there as well.
Feels like a driver issue in Windows.

Is it a link from intel download library for version 22.50.1? interest to download a workable version of 22.50.1 to try out wifi6E. I try download the driver from the above link "Download Intel PROSet/Wireless Driver 22.50.1 for Windows 10 (softpedia.com)" , however, when I started the update process, it prompt " unable to install to window 11"!! Any link I can download the driver and give a choice to manually install to window 11?

I am having the same issue with my Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360. Using latest Intel AX210 driver - version 22.80.1.1 and unable to view or connect to 6GHz SSIDs. Not a settings issue on laptop or router, e.g. have confirmed that 'Ultra High Band (6GHz)' in the device's properties > Advanced menu is set to Enabled state.

Intel just released a firmware update for the AX200/201/210/211/411 but still no 6GHz support for germany unfortunetly...
Funny thing in the driver: The "So/Ty/Cc" (S.../Typhon/Cyclon Peak) devices (AX200-AX411) must had at one time during development three fully functional RF-Chains / Frontends.. At least the driver had until recently 3x3 support for these devices but none of them used it.. They removed that feature some time ago, so i guess they will never release any 3x3 spatial stream solution based on that chipset family.
Let´s hope Luciano Coelho soon is allowed to release an updated regdb in form of an .pnvm file with all of the recent EU 6 GHz regulations included..

Hi Andrew,
I have a HP Windows 11 laptop that has the Intel WiFi 6 AX 201 and a Linksys Hydra Pro 6E.
The HP laptop cannot even see the 6 GHz band broadcasting.
I have been asking Linksys Customer Service about it for the past 13 days and it seems they do not have a good answer on how to make it work.
Yesterday, I asked again, but I got a reply:
Hi, dantesan. The 6Ghz band only supports the WPA3 encryption type. It means that only the WiFi 6E supported devices can detect and connect to this band. We encourage you to check with the laptop's manufacturer if they have an updated driver that will provide support or fix/enhance issues for Wi-Fi 6E.
I already followed this link and updated my driver:
It is still not seen.
I added the 6Ghz band into Manage Known Networks and checked 'Connect to it even if it is not broadcasting'. Then I will be able to see it in the list of WiFis and when I connect to it, I will get:
Can't connect to this network
Thanks.

Hi Andrew,
Please disregard this question.
I did not look at the specs of Intel WiFi 6 AX201 that it can only connect to the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band and unlike the 210 AX or higher can connect to the 6 GHz band.
Thanks.

with 22.50.1, I can find 6 GHz SSID, but can not connect to it
with 22.80.1.1 and KB5006746 update, I can connect to 6 GHz with no problem. I setup two other computers with same conditions: window 11, KB5006746 and 22.80.1.1, both computers also can find 6 GHz and connect with no problem!! My hardware: computer: Samsung, Wifi: Asus zenwifi
Hopefully, intel or Microsoft can resolve your connection problem

I completely reformatted one of my laptops (2021 Razer Blade 15) and did a fresh install of Windows 11 on it using a USB flash disk made from the Microsoft media creation tool this weekend. Did all Windows Updates and installed 22.80.1.1 drivers. Still can not see my 6 GHz wireless network on this laptop which has AX210 card.
Booting using an Arch Linux USB installation on this laptop allows me to see & connect to 6 GHz wireless network with no difficulty.
Other laptop with AX210 (2021 Razer Blade 14) sees and connects to it just fine under Windows 11 with 22.80.1.1.
There's something screwy with this driver and it's really frustrating.

Hello sacshack,
There is a BIOS update available for 2021 Razer Blade 15 (RZ09-0409x) that will resolve this issue of not being able to connect to Wifi 6E 6GHz SSIDs. It might not be publicly available yet however. You'll have to reach out to Razer support to obtain it.

At least in germany intel activated the 6GHz Band for the AX210 with this firmware update: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=13fc9c285a399932f5a6205b827cf690b4a3c29b
This is probably the activation for the rest of the EU as well, but i don´t know that.
