A user with 4.15.11-1~bpo9+1 Debian kernel reported the following problem with Intel 9260NGW in a Dell XPS 13: the following nl80211 reported values were off [1]:

* signal average (NL80211_STA_INFO_SIGNAL_AVG) reported as +72 dBm
* beacon signal average (NL80211_STA_INFO_BEACON_SIGNAL_AVG) reported as +184 dBm
* while the station signal was reported as -74 dBm

I found a work-around in user-space, not sure if this has been fixed already.
