Lost wifi on Dell XPS 13 laptop after installing latest kernel on OL 9.2.

Reverting to previous kernel fixed issue.

Had the same issue with my WiFi

Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 (rev 3a)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device 9010

Rolled back from kernel-uek-5.15.0-200.131.27.el9uek.x86_64 to non UEK kernel kernel-5.14.0-284.30.1.el9_2.x86_64

We're looking into this now.

i can confirm that
Linux 5.15.0-200.131.27.el9uek.x86_64 #2 SMP Wed Oct 4 22:09:54 PDT 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[tvierling]

Please try the latest update, 5.15.0-201.135.6. We believe this fixed the issue (verified on Dell-branded laptops inside the company).

confirmed !
I did a dnf up to Linux 5.15.0-201.135.6.el9uek.x86_64 #2 SMP Thu Nov 30 16:13:06 PST 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ; sys64738 and the DELL branded laptop with Intel Corporation Wireless 8265 / 8275 (rev 78) came up with working wifi again
Thank you :)

Thanks, we'll close this issue. (And I appreciate the sys64738 comment, heh)
