Missing linux-modules-extra-6.8.0-63-lowlatency package

Installing Zorin OS

I would like to try the low latency kernels but they don't seem to ship with modules-extra which I think I need for Netgear wifi dongles. Specifically v6.8.0-63:

Modules extra seems to be limited to the 'generic' kernel. Any idea if this was intentional?

Cheers!

Mosty likely it is, due to the low demand and high overhead of creating a package for each flavor of kernel.
However, here is a download link to a .deb pacakge for Modules-Extra-LowLatency 6.8.0-50
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-lowlatency-hwe-6.8/linux-modules-6.8.0-50-lowlatency_6.8.0-50.51.1~22.04.1_amd64.deb
