Have a HP Pavilion x360 m3 u101dx i3 7100 and wish to upgrade my wireless card

Currently Product Type: Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168

Is the Intel® Wireless-AC 9260 compatible?
There are any other recommendation on newer wcard?

 

Thanks

This 2 x 2 card was offered as an alternate:

 

Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 802.11 ac 2×2 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter (for use only in North America and Europe) 793840-005

 

This is a half-height M.2 form factor wireless card and if that one will work there is no reason you can't use this:

You want the non-Vpro version

Thanks for the reply.

 

ok - non-Vpro version and as far as I researched a stable good card, will give it a try.

Intel Wireless-Ac 9260, 2230, 2X2 Ac+Bt, Gigabit, No Vpro

Thank you again

You found a much better price than I did. Good luck and post back. Before you buy just double check yours is a 2230 form factor slot. I am almost 100% sure it is but as they say measure twice cut once. 

 

Please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.

From Intel site: AC 3168 is mine current and AC 9260 the desired
