Looks like you have one of those weird OEM customized AX201 models with AX201's Wi-Fi and AX210's gen3 bluetooth. Unfortunately this means the minimal version of bluetooth available is 5.2 and is only functional in macOS Big Sur or earlier as Apple messed up support for Bluetooth 5.2 starting from Monterey. See #369 for more details.

The bluetooth firmware upload issue should be fixed in the recent commits and the compiled binary is available in the artifacts section from the latest Ci run. The culprit is Intel decided to share the same model name and the same USB id for different generations of products.

Since this is a duplicate of #369 and we prefer to have the same issue discussed in one place, I will close this for now. Feel free to continue the discussion in #369.
