WiFi 6E Problems - RAXE500
I've recently configured my Netgear RAXE500 router and experiencing issues with very slow speeds and low signal with Wi-Fi 6E and I'm unable to authenticate with WPA3-Personal using the Intel AX210 m...
WPA3 on 6Ghz has extra requirements... It requires Hash to Element (H2E).
Everything you listed only refers to the standard WPA3, thats already available on most AX devices and does not require H2E on 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz. H2E is not available in Windows 10 1903... You need 21H1.
Once 21H1 was available, I updated my AX210 to the 22.50 drivers(available as an optional update in Win10), and tried to set up the 6GHz band for WPA3. It still would not work. Honestly, at this point I'm ready to take engineers from Netgear, Intel and Microsoft and lock them in a room until they can come up with a consensus of what still needs updating.
Currently everything is waiting on Microsoft to release an official update to eeryone to enable WPA3 on the 6GHz band.
The AX210's hardware as well as drivers are largely ready, but the windows update for it is still locked behind one of their unstable branches where if you join that branch, you wil need to reinstall windows to leave it.
They would just point a finger at each other.

Then I guess the door would stay locked.
