I have a HP 15-ba079dx.  I can't find anywhere online where I can see a list of compatible wlan cards.  I've opened up the lapptop a couple of times to max out the ram and to upgrade the hdd to a ssd so I know that wlan card only has 1 antenna and is the thinner version.  I purchased a wlan card off amazon I thought was going to work but its too wide to fit into the connection slot.  

 

I'm hoping that I can still find a card with bluetooth and 5ghz capabilities even though there is only one antenna.   can live without 5ghz but I was really hoping for buetooth.

 

Anyone know a wlan card that will be compatible and give me the upgrades? The wlan card I bought from amazon is an intel card model 7260hmw.
