I have this same issue like others. I'm IT specialist and I know lot of computers. I have 2 laptops DELL with Intel Wi-Fi cards. Newest one with AC-3165 on Windows 10 is working very very slow. Full speed is only for 5 seconds and after that is freeze for about 1 minute and again this same loop when I click Wi-Fi icon on taskbar then full speed come back because card is scanning all Wi-Fi networks around but when is not scanning then probably card is switching off. I'm testing this Wi-Fi card on Debian 9.5 and it's work with full speed so this means Windows 10 have broken drivers.

Hello MESWEB,
Thank you for your response.
We recommend you to set https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005546/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking.html Wi-Fi Roaming Aggressiveness Setting to "Medium". Also, make sure the following setting is checked: "https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005879/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking.html Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".
In case of driver/settings corruption, you can perform a clean install of the wireless driver:
