Hi:

 

That model shouldn't have a BIOS whitelist.

 

Since the specs indicate that it comes with an Intel core processor and chipset, you can upgrade to this model wifi adapter...

 

Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 802.11 ac 2x2 WiFi + BT 4.0    HP Part # 710661-001

 

The card can be bought on Amazon or eBay.

 

Do your search by the HP part number, not the model of the wifi card.
