HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion g6-2210sa
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I need to upgrade my wifi card on my Pavilion g6-2210sa notebook, as it is limited to 50mbs on wifi.

I googled several sites and found that a possible upgrade card might be the Intel Dual band wireless 7260- Ac-HMC card however when i installed it it enables but will not find any network or actually do anythig  despite installing the Ac adapter drivers.

I have looked at page 24-25 of the manual but all the wifi cards are only single band 2.4ghz options.

I don't really want to buy a new laptop. 

I have read that the bios might be blocking the INtel card ? 

I need some help and ideally a part number i can order to allow upto 200mbs speeds via wifi.

thanks
