Aurora R13, AX1675, not working at 6 GHz
2026 April. This problem still NOT fixed. using 2026 march killer driver still not able to find 6 GHz channel. I am using a RXAE500 WiFi6E router, no problem on other 6E card but killer 1675x. The problem is on my Alienware R13. it is fine but cannot connect 6GHz. I believe 1675X is NOT supply 6E.
Best Regards,
Joe :(

The Aurora R13 parts page only shows OEM 0K1R3 Killer 1675x card. It does not show AX1675.
The Dell 0K1R3 Killer 1675x card only supports 2.4 GHz/5 GHz frequency bands. I think that the Dell driver documentation stating AX1675 are incorrect.

Yep, that is same as Drivers & Downloads page. But in your and the other XPS 8950 user testing, 6E was not present. Which leads me to think the Dell documentation was incorrect.

I think OPTION THREE here is also incorrect in name, should be 1675x since it clearly shows 2.4 GHz/ 5 GHz =

For this Aurora R13, I would simply remove the card and replace it with a retail form factor 2230 WiFi 6E card.
See pages 65/66.

Should support 6E according to Intel documentation: Killer 1675
Have you tried the Intel drivers instead of OEM drivers for the Killer 1675? Intel Killer drivers 1675

@Vanadiel The retail specifications very often to do not apply to Dell OEM hardware.

This shows why they could not get 6 on the XPS 8950, same OEM 0K1R3 Killer 1675x card as the Aurora R13 =

@DELL-ChrisM2 Ah, problem solved:
OEM Version of Killer 1675
Yes, there is an OEM version of the Killer 1675 known as the Killer 1675x. This version has different specifications compared to the standard model.
Key Differences
The Killer 1675x is limited to dual-band capabilities, while the standard Killer 1675 supports tri-band, including the new 6 GHz band. This distinction is important for users looking to maximize their wireless performance, especially in environments with many devices.
