Quickspecs for 15-ba511ur, wifi whitelist and max memory support

[kirgudu]

Hello!

I can't find quickspecs for this model of notebook.

1. What is maximum memory support of notebook?

2. I want to change wifi card. Have it whitelist in bios or I can install any M2 card in it?

3. Can you give whitelist?

Hi:

Check the maintenance and service guide for your model below for the memory upgrade info (chapter 1, page 2).

Make sure you look at the right column for your specific hardware configuration.

There is no whitelist, but if you plan on installing a dual band wireless card, you will need to make sure your notebook has two antennas present.

Also, very important...you cannot install any Intel wlan card in your notebook because it has AMD hardware, so you will have to use a Broadcom dual band wireless N or AC card with the applicable form factor (HMC or M.2) that your current wlan card is.

Most of the notebooks with a single band wlan card only have one antenna present, and unless you are willing to take the whole notebook apart, including the display panel area to run a 2nd antenna, one antenna for a dual band card isn't going to work properly.

Don't rely on the picture in the service guide to determine if your notebook has two antennas.

Thanks a lot.

I think, Atheros AC card will be good.

It have only one anntena.

You're very welcome.

Yes, that should be just fine.
