We have several Dell Latitude 3520's, more are coming, with an Intel AX201 wireless adapter in them, that are experiencing connectivity issues. These issues take place whether the connection is an 802.11ac or 802.11ax based. The problem occurs when our uses authenticate using 802.1x to gain access to our network. When first connecting our users will authenticate successfully and have access to the network but, when the reauthenticate interval expires L3 connectivity gets dropped. The user will authenticate successfully but L3 connectivity stops. To clear this up we have to either disconnect/reconnect to the WiFi or wait for the next reauthentication interval to expire and L3 connectivity will return.
We are an Aruba shop and at locations where this issue currently exists we are running Aruba IAP-305s and IAP-535s. We have worked with Aruba to rule out an issue with their WAPs via packet captures and debugs. When the issue occurs we can see the Aruba WAPs sending the icmp packets back to the laptop but the laptop does not see them.
What we tried so far without any change:
- Different SSID's.
- Authenticating against our RADIUS infrastructure or locally against the WAP virtual controller.
- Different reauthentication intervals from 10mins to a few hours.
- AX201 firmware versions 22.80, 22.70, and 22.60.
- Intel recommended settings for 802.11ax connectivity.
What has worked so far:
- When we use a PSK for the SSID there are no issues.
Laptop(s) details:
Dell Latitude 3520
NIC - AX201
WIN10 - 20H2 - build 19042.1288
I've attached an Intel scan to this posting.

We face this issue with exactly same symptoms and configuration. It happens only on Ax201 160Mhz Intel Wireless card (both HP Zbook and Dell Latitude, around fifty laptops). The wireless network is based on 802.1X EAP TLS auth with radius and WLC Cisco equipments). The problem has been firstly spotted around September 2021 and still remaining despite all drivers updates / downgrade.
5-8 disconnection a day, no wireless loss but L3 network loss, end user need to manually disconnect then reconnect. Only occurs on W10 (only tested on it btw) with WPA2 Enterprise + EAP & Radius based auth. Managing connection losses are a nightmare to manage everyday, you can easily relate.
It seems related both hardware (wireless card) and probably tied with Windows update integrating WPA3 stuffs.
No problem with WPA2 personal (PSK), we didn’t tried on WPA3 enterprise.
I can’t believe this issue has not been seen by Intel team, I heard a lot about companies facing this issue (also major companies).
There is an official bug tracker / thread to follow the issue analysis / fix release?
Thanks a lot,
Benjamin.

Hi,
How we can get the driver you received? We have exact the same problem - suddenly Radius Wifi stopped connecting. Issue appears to be only with computers with Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz cards. Error is could not connect to this network.
Thanks.

22.100.1 does not have a driver date of 12/27/2021. Also in the release notes i cannot find the fix for this problem.
@DavidO_Intel can you please send the right driver so we can test? Or do you confirm the 22.100.1 should fix the problem??
Best regards,
Mark

Josue O,
Would you kindly send the updated driver via private message? We are just now running into this same issue for new laptop deployments and have exhausted all other possibilities than the driver. Seeing what has been posted here mirrors our experience.
Thank you,

Good day sir- is it possible to get that driver as well. I have downloaded the latest at the Intel Site : with Version : 22.100.1.1 < is that indeed the version to use for the fix ?
What we are seeing is clients randomly failing to complete the 802.1x to the network EAP-TLS. Sometimes they can connect other times they can't . It is across different locations, APs , wireless LAN controller.
Have a Cisco TAC Case open on it. They are seeing that it is related to the client not sending a response.
Jan 24 10:22:28.290 *apfMsConnTask_7 The WLC/AP has found from client association request Information Element that claims PMKID Caching support
Jan 24 10:22:28.290 *apfMsConnTask_7 The Reassociation Request from the client comes with 0 PMKID
Jan 24 10:22:28.290 *apfMsConnTask_7 Client has successfully cleared AP association phase
Jan 24 10:22:58.214 *osapiBsnTimer 4-Way PTK Handshake, Client did not respond with M0
Jan 20 12:15:10.616 *apfMsConnTask_4 Client has successfully cleared AP association phase
Jan 20 12:16:49.675 *apfReceiveTask Client session has timed out
Jan 20 12:16:59.593 *apfReceiveTask Client session has timed out
And we have all Intel chipsets in use, the one user we did a debug on is using :
Driver : Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz
Vendor : Intel Corporation
Provider : Intel
Date : 9/27/2021
Version : 22.90.0.5
I've asked them to upgrade to 22.100.1.1 if that is what Intel is recommending.
