Same brand adapters or different brand?
I know only thing that wasnt mentioned to me was that since I was using Windows 10, there was a reg modification that for some, needed done to make the adapter work. I believe I did this initially but didn't work however using v22.45 driver they also mentioned, made it work. However on the RAXE500 it sees the 5Ghz but won't connect if WPA3 is enabled.
I've been told that plemans is using v22.90 with his and its working for him and his RAXE500 in AP mode.

Reg modification required just for old version of the drivers, i have latest version from the Intel web-site. and in the REG already all steps for modification done by the Intel.
