Firmware is at the latest version. Intel it not interested in debugging
'old' 6.8 kernels. Firmware is a black box so there's not much we can
do.

Things you can try:
1) Upgrade to 24.04 and use the HWE kernel
2) Try older firmware versions [1]
3) Try mainline kernels [2]. If you find a working one (as close to 6.8 as 
possible) we might be able to find a kernel fix.

[1] 
iwlwifi in 6.8 supports APIs 59 to 86. You're currently loading 86 
(so-a0-gf-a0-86.ucode). Temporarily remove 
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-86.ucode.zst and reboot. This should then 
load so-a0-gf-a0-84.ucode. If that doesn't work remove 
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-84.ucode.zst to test -83. And so on...

Note that mainline kernels are unsigned so you need to disable SecureBoot.

Let me know how that goes.
