Bugzilla reports are useful as they will be the first place users check
after encountering problems, but in my experience, upstream devs
may already be aware of the issue and can often provide a patch if
you are willing to install it from source.  For Secure Boot you
may need to create a machine-owner key (MOK).  Instructions are
available.for Fedora 35:

I just upgraded to the *16* kernel. This problem continues.

I'm now back to running the *14* kernel.

Is there a way to report this problem?

  "I have a witness."

  I've rebooted to an earlier kernel (kernel-5.16.14-200.fc35.x86_64), and
  things seem to be stable, wifi-wise. On the newest kernel
  (kernel-5.16.15-201.fc35.x86_64) things would have become problematic w/in
  a few minutes.

  Am I doing this correctly, or are should other approaches be tried?

I went through the same process.

kernel-5.16.15-201.fc35.x86_64 causes the wifi to drop regularly
kernel-5.16.14-200.fc35.x86_64 works well.

This is with an Atheros wireless chip

The Wi-Fi card on my wife's XPS 13 failed a while back - the behavior
was intermittent dropped connections, poor throughput, etc.  I did
some googling and found multiple reports about a specific wifi card
used in some XPS 13s that was known to get flakey after a while -
sorry, but I don't remember specifics as to the card.

I replaced the wifi card with a new one - an Intel Corporation
Wireless-AC 9260.  No problems since.
