What is the full model number for your Dell laptop? 'XPS 1300' matches nothing on their site.

According to the Dell site, this laptop has a Killer™ Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 card (which is a fine card). The equivalent to this from Intel would be the AX200 card. You can find out more about it here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/wireless/wi-fi-6-series/wi-fi-6-ax200.html.

Thanks.

The Killer keeps going to sleep and the Power Management option for the card appear in Device Manager.  Dell suggested this swap.

Ask them what version of the AX1650 is installed. If it's (just) the AX1650x, then the AX200 is a valid replacement. If it's the AX1650i, we have to be careful. In theory, there shouldn't be any problem, but I have seen reports of the AX200 not working with certain motherboards (it has something to do with the M.2 connector's support for CNVio on that motherboard).

It appears to be the 1650s.

Well, as I said, the AX200 should, in theory, work. The module is fairly cheap (~US$20 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Intel-Network-AX200-NGWG-NV-AX2002230-Retail/dp/B07ZVYKRW9), so not a huge outlay to try...
