The 11th gen XPS 13? Aka XPS 13 9310? I'm looking at getting one of those too. Cheers, Noth

Hi Thanks for your answers. This card is USD on new Dell XPSs, it may also be used on other laptop. If I eventually get the laptop I'll check the output of 'pcidump -v'.

Unfortunately there is not just one "AX1650" card. There are several devices using that name with some variations. Some of these devices will require firmware to be added to the iwx-firmware package. But it looks like all AX1650 variants are essentially AX201 devices. So the driver code should work with little or no modifications once the device ID is recognized and the correct firmware gets loaded.

Support of the AX1650 card
Sorry I think I had a problem with my previous message which appeared to be blank. I plan to buy a laptop with an AX1650 wifi card, which isn't marked as compatible with the iwx driver. However, it is, in fact, a AX200, which is compatible with this driver, with a different driver for Windows. So I wanted to know if it could work and someone had tested it. Thanks.
