Unable to create a Wi-Fi 6 Hotspot (Windows 11) - AX200

Laukar · ‎01-17-2022

Hi,

I've been wanting to create a Wifi 6 hotspot with my Wi-Fi 6 Card (AX200) for a long time, but no such option exists on W10 or W11, is this something I should raise with Microsoft in hopes they will eventually add this feature or is this something Intel might be able to add eventually?

I have Quest 2 which supports wifi-6 but I can't utilise wifi-6 with it because of this. Or am I incorrect in thinking that Wifi 6 option should even come up? Wifi 6 is supposed to utilise both 2.4 ghz and 5Ghz bands at the same time, so I doubt that Windows currently fully utilizes Wifi-6 capabilities when it comes to creating hotspots.

Regards,

Laukar

Hello Laukar,

Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.

In order to better assist you, please provide the following:

1. Run the Intel® System Support Utility (Intel® SSU) to gather more details about the system.

Download the Intel® SSU and save the application on your computer: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18377/intel-system-support-utility-for-windows.html
Open the application, check the "Everything" checkbox, and click "Scan" to see the system and device information. The Intel® SSU defaults to the "Summary View" on the output screen following the scan. Click the menu where it says "Summary" to change to "Detailed View".
To save your scan, click Next and click Save.

2. Is this the original adapter that came pre-installed on your computer or did you change/install the adapter to this one?

3. Can other devices connect to the Wifi 6 via hotspot?

4. Can you connect to Wifi 6 directly from the router?

5. What is the brand and model name of the router?
