It is now working after installing gnome network manager and a reboot.
also nmcli wifi list now works too.
Including network-manager-gnome in the next official image would make getting wifi up and running easier.
sudo apt install network-manager-gnome
sudo reboot now
Here is the amazon listing, this one has both antennas.

Just found out how I broke it.
Changed hosts and hostname and it does not work.
Seems like more exists.
Here is some more information.

Did a search for “api flags index 2 larger than supported by driver” and this seems to be a common problem regardless of the distro. So trying to debug this wifi board might be a huge waste of time since the problems are numerous.
Found one posted in the intel support forum and that poster had it working then it would not.
They mentioned running kernel 5.10, mine is 5.10.120
I was able to get the AX200 running although i experienced a bug where it would no longer be recognized after a shutdown + unplugging the power source.
The solution was either unplugging and re-plugging in the miniDP to DP Monitor or removing and re-seating the AX200 card.
Maybe it’s a localized case but I 've since switched to the older Intel 9260NGW and it no longer suffers the same bug. (It worked out-of-box with Nov 1 Edge AI image)
I’m using an AX210NGW and it is working pretty well. A couple of times I have had to use wpagui when it lost or forgot how to connect to my network. Also sometimes I have to issue a ’ sudo nmcli radio wifi on’ command, I don’t know why it’s not automatic.
