RAX29 WiFi 6 Router not connecting at WiFi 6 with my laptop

Yes.  I am trying to solve WHY my laptop connects to one router with two WiFi networks with two different protocols.  The primary network explicitly states that AX is enabled, but only connects with AC.  The guest networks (both 2.4 & 5 GHz) connect with AX.  This does not make any sense to me.

 

Please read my prior posts and the attached screen shots, I believe I've stated the issue fairly clearly;  I have certainly tried hard to be straightforward.

Your attempts to be straightforward are missing the mark by a significant amount.  Suggest you go back and read your posts scattered over 9 months time!

Recently you post a properties snip from a Realtek Wi-Fi radio card that has not been previously mentioned.

A Wi-Fi connection from a computer is a negotiation process from the computer to the router depending on the router settings, the radio frequency environment at the time of the connection, distance away from the router, and other factors.

Different brands of radio cards and the drivers they use have different results.  Neither the WPA3 or the AX standard are fully mature.  Hardware manufacturers, and the drivers they use, do not establish exactly the same connection.  The old adage, your mileage may vary applies here.  And it may vary from day to day and computer to computer.
