I am too facing the same problem.

- Intel does not have Linux driver for "Intel Wi-Fi 6E Ax211 160Mhz" as on 2024.May.02.

- Nor a documentation/Instruction to sign-in the module for secure-boot (in case you are using secure-boot).

- Have to wait to the Intel developers to write Linux driver for "Intel Wi-Fi 6E Ax211 160Mhz"

- Latest driver that Intel has is is for "Intel Wi-Fi 6E Ax210 160Mhz" for Kernels 5.10.+

Any updates? I'm having the same issue. Linux is asking for:

Min version: iwlwifi-ma-a0-gf-a0-39

Max version: iwlwifi-ma-a0-gf-a0-72

But none can be found on the linux firmware repo. The product page says Linux is supported

Thank you

I tries older drivers from Intel's site mentioned above. But non worked.

So I reinstalled the OS now everything works. Ubuntu 20.04.6 has some drive that comes with OS, they works fine. 

If you some how update or by any means uninstall and reinstall the network-namager and try to reinstall the Intel Wifi. You will have this issue. At least I fell into this problem this way. 

You could either work with Ethernet for time being, and wait for Intel to release driver for Intel hardware: Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX211 160MHz. 

Or go for a Fresh Install of OS. (This is really time taking process & and restore data & re configure all frameworks for ongoing projects)
