m15 R6, Intel AX211NGW not working
So, I was having a lot of problems with the original 'AX1650i' aka 'AX200NGW'.
Because of that I decided to switch to AX211NGW.
The problem is that both of then need the existence of CNVio2.
But the AX211NGW doesn't work properly.
On the BIOS it seems to work and even detect the adapter, but windows doesn't detect.
I've tried to uninstall the drivers and install the latest ones to AX211NGW but unfortunately does not work.
I've even tried to install a fresh windows ISO but does not work too.
What I've done until resolve this issue was uninstall the killer suite.

Sorry, but are you serious? Look at the specs of the AX1650. (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/211610/intel-killer-wifi-6-ax1650-is/specifications.html)
I look it up for the right specs before buying something, the AX1650 is also CNVio2.
Also, I already sold my alienware and don't pretend to buy one in the near future, thank you.
