Killer(R) wifi 6 AX1650i 160MHz Wireless Network adapter(201NGW) stop working

Hello Intel:

I'm sorry about my poor English. But I have a problem. I need help.

My computer: Alienware m15 R6
11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-11800H @ 2.30GHz 2.30 GHz
RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable)
477 GB SSD BC711 NVMe SK hynix 512GB
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU (6 GB), Intel(R) UHD Graphics (128 MB)
64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

I have used this computer for about 4 years. At first, the AX1650i worked well. But probably after an updating, the AX1650i stopped working. Then I met the 
same problem as @Andrew111134562. It's almost the same case.  Then it became worse. I reboot it for many times, and it is still offline.  ‌Curiously, when I restart the system, AX1650i will work for about 2min and then turn to offline and broken. I have turn the driver of AX1650 to 23.160.0.4 and it still out of working.
