The Intel AX200 Wi-Fi adapter frequently stops unexpectedly.
My intel AX200 wifi+BT adapter often disconnects unexpectedly or acts unpredictably. I've owned this machine for nearly two years, experiencing problems with the adapter every few minutes at times and functioning normally for months. Issues include sudden ping spikes (from 5ms to over 1000ms), random loss of connection from the network, and inability to connect to 5GHz while being close enough. I've tried various fixes: resetting the network, updating drivers, installing older versions, changing DNS or channels, performing a full system update, booting with a new OS, and even using a USB dongle temporarily. Sometimes it works perfectly for weeks, then suddenly fails again after a few days. The specs are listed in the post. I'm frustrated because none of these solutions seem to help, and I don't have access to the router settings. It seems the problem can appear without warning, and it's hard to pinpoint the cause. I live in a shared apartment and can't adjust the router settings myself, though I've tried changing them before. The card model is provided in the link.
You're asking if the suggested setting matches your needs. The PC is still turning off PCIe devices, but it doesn't fully resolve the issue. Sometimes the adapter's light turns off by itself, yet browsing works with a different network, while other times you need to restart it manually. It seems the problem might be elsewhere.
This should work in standard environments. I'll reach a Windows 10 machine in about an hour or two and look for the feature I'm referring to. It could be missing, as it might only be available on laptops.
I've explored various iterations, including older releases and newer updates. The current version 22.80.0.9 works for me. Would you like suggestions on a specific version or use case?
