Comment for PID 1a62 (I have AX 55 not AX56):
/*=== ASUS USB-AX56 =======*/
{USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_VENDOR_ID_ASUS, 0x1997, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff), .driver_info = RTL8852A},
{USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_VENDOR_ID_ASUS, 0x1a62, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff), .driver_info = RTL8852A},
Apparently, the AX55 contains an 8852bu chip, which is the reason it is not working. I will send a message to my contact at Realtek to see is I can find a driver for 8852bu.
By the way, the commit message when your device was added to the 8852au driver was as follows:
commit 1bf2f7b
Author: Larry Finger Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
Date: Sat Jan 14 23:45:35 2023 -0600
rtl8852au: Add ASUS device with ID of 0b05:1a62
It is not known if this really is an RTW8852AU. If it is, this will work.

We now know the answer to that implied question.
I got the driver from Realtek, and modified it to build through kernel 6.5. You should clone it from https://github/com/lwfinger/rtl8852b.git.
I hope it will work. Any problems with that driver should be discussed in a new issue under the new repo.
