WPA3 not working on 6GHz in Windows 11
I would have put the Model in the appropriate field, but it wasn't available in the selection list. I have a Nighthawk AXE11000(RAXE500) router with firmware version V1.0.7.68_2.0.35, and four PCs w...
And same IS using WPA3 currently.
Intel will encourage you to upgrade the OS to WIN11 which would definitely support 6GHZ WPA3-SAE and OWE mode.

Please look at the thread topic and my original post. I AM in Windows 11, and WPA3 is not working on 6GHz. That's why I made the post. So far, Microsoft is blaming Intel and Netgear. Intel is blaming my motherboard chipset(despite the fact all four systems are using different motherboards with different chipsets, including an X570 and B550). No one can explain how my four different PCs can use 6GHz in OWE mode but not WPA3. They are able to authenticate when WAP3 is on, and the connection works. But within a few minutes it's dropped.
Well I know my Windows 10 PC with a 6Ghz wifi adapter connects with using WPA3 and Orbi RBKE953.
There was specific driver version needed to get the adapter to connect.
I'll check with my RAXE500 I got this past weekend.
pdegan2814 I'm not able to reproduce your disconnect issues on the laptop I posted the Network page to a few posts up.
Have you tried doing a factory reset on the RAXE500?
One other thing I remember from early on is that because the AX210 cards aren't directly from Intel some people got versions that never did seem to work correctly. Could it be that your AX210 cards were sourced from one of these "suspect" vendors?

I actually have recently done a factory reset on the router. I may try some more testing, especially now that Intel just released a 22.90 driver for the AX210.
We have a new test firmware for the RAXE500 you can find it at the link below
I can confirm with v1.0.1.52 and v1.0.9.72 that my Intel AX210 6Ghz PCI adapter (v22.45) install using Windows 10x64 is NOT connecting to the RAXE500 when WPA3 is enabled. I can connect the adapter to the RAXE500 if I disable WPA3 and set for OPEN security.
Same Intel AX210 adapter works on a different NG router with WPA3 enabled.
Adapter connected to NG non RAXE500 router using WPA3:
