Hi, I've succeeded to connect to the network after a few reboots on panic (I suppose).

The kext I've used is from the article here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/success-working-intel-wifi-drivers-for-7265ac-on-catalina.292207/

Used kextload to install it.

I've managed to connect both to 2.4 and 5g networks of my router.

The connection is unstable (the icon shows that the wifi is stable and switched on with 4-3 bars in it, but when I open it I see that it is being connected to the network, but one time in 2 seconds it changes the status from "connected" to "searching for networks") and it feels a huge drop of packages.

P.S. even speediest shows 3 Mbps :)) (I have 80 Mbps) (Also, seems that the upload doesn't work at all, because speediest crashed on the step after testing a download speed)

No support for that kext here
This is for the iwlwifi port at https://github.com/appleintelwifi/adapter

But I thought, that you have just newer version of one on tonymacx86 here.

Could you please provide me with the kext file itself?

Thank you.

The kext provided in the first post iirc is from the PCBeta forum and is very unstable. They've since dissapeared and really haven't done any work on it publicly.
I don't have a copy of this kext right now, though you could try building it and running yourself. It does require having XCode.

actually the pre-built kext for this project has been made available by the developer here: https://intelwifi.0xcc.pw/
