Update: MSI just sent back a new card (MSI Herald-BE Wi-Fi 7 MAX - QC 7800 chipset) everything works, my last one hasn’t had its PCID added to the patch, I was lucky this one was 0489:e10a. Running Linux Zen kernel 6.14.1.
Working now, see comment above I forgot to reply to you earlier.
Additional BT VID/PID now also included in Linux 6.14.3

Awesome. Updated to this kernel and my dual-sense game controller now works again.

They broke it again in 6.14.4. Game controller wont even connect to bluetooth anymore on this kernel. Had to revert back to 6.14.3 to fix it.
anyone having crashes with ath12k driver on 6.14.x?
when I try to switch SSIDs or disconnect I get almost a full system lockup, I can move cursor, windows but it does not react to any command.
Yes, I think I did experience crashes/freezes like that if I disabled wifi or turned on “airplane mode” back on 6.14.3.
I have been running on 6.15.0-rc4-1.1-mainline-dirty this week without issue. I can disable/enable wifi just fine and it now shows the speed in the kde settings page. So it seems to be getting better and better with each new kernel:
You’re not alone
Thanks, Idk why I could not find it
FYI: Linux 6.16 and ath12k will have MLO support for this card.
I just tried the latest ath tree and the driver is way faster now(nothing related to MLO, my AP don’t support that)
Before I didn’t get more than 50MB/s now i’m at 80MB/s.
AP is 5Gz Wi-Fi 6 and located one floor below

Since I no longer have a FW laptop, I threw in this card on my System76 laptop and the WIFI performance is slow. It also crashes when I switch SSIDs. After reading here, it seems things were working fine on kernel 6.13.x. I have such bad timing, lol. I’m on Fedora 42.
I swapped to the Intel WIFI 6E card I bought before. The laptop came with a Intel WIFI 6 card. It’s not a big difference. Mostly because for some reason, I still cannot see or connect to a 6 GHz SSID.
Linux and new WIFI cards are hard…
I just updated Fedora 42 to Linux 6.14.5-300.fc42.x86_64. Now I have no WiFi! I even tried a USB adapter and no WiFi cards are recognized. Anyone else having this issue?
I had to break out the wired LAN adapter so I can use my laptop. 
is not the Kernel, but the new atheros-firmware, the version 20250509 seems to break WiFi for the Qualcomm W7 card. Good that I had BTRFS snapshots, was easy to fix.
EDIT: Now back to 20250410 and still on kernel Linux 6.14.5-300.fc42.x86_64 WiFi is working fine.
Yes, same here. Downgrading linux-firmware seems to be the workaround for now. There’s a response from Qualcomm on the following bug report - seems they’re aware at least.
No BTRFS snapshots.
How do I downgrade to the older version?
I completely removed the atheros-firmware and now I can at least use a USB WiFi adapter for the moment.
probably you can try:
sudo dnf downgrade linux-firmware
sudo dnf versionlock exclude atheros-firmware-20250509-1.fc42
sudo dnf versionlock exclude linux-firmware-20250509-1.fc42

FYI ath12k is updated now to support natively iwd
which make this iwd setting ControlPortOverNL80211 useless 
just tried it, it works

I lost 6GHz either with the atheros-firmware-20250613-1.fc42 or the Kernel 6.15.3.
I cannot see any 6GHz BSSID
