I guess this is a new STA with wpa_supplicant, right? Is it also AX200 based
chipset? In the STA mode, the kernel adds the HE IEs (either mac80211
or the driver),
so, but interestingly in your previous dmesg, I don't see any mac80211 logs.

So, need dmesg logs that capture the connection (look for mac80211 logs).

Yes this is a new STA connecting AP with wpa_supplicant.
It is also an AX200.
I don’t see mac80211 logs on the STA dmesg.
I am attaching dmesg of the station.
