Intel ax210 compatible with 15 ec2008ax

Is hp pavilion gaming 15-ec2008ax compatible with intel ax210?

No, but the Intel AX200 non-vPro would be.

I don't know if you want to go through the trouble to change out one Wi-Fi 6 card for another but if you are having issues with the Realtek card, it might be well worth it to install the Intel card.

Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 ax 2×2 + Bluetooth 5.0 MU-MIMO M.2 2230 non-vPro   HP part # L35282-005.

Here are the specs on the Intel card:

Intel® Wi-Fi 6 AX200

Is it not in the whitelisted of the bios? May i know the reason behind the incompatibility?

also, I would like to know if I can buy a different card with ax200 chipset?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

The card will be rejected by the BIOS. 

The only Intel AX 200 card you can install is the one I posted.

I was asking that as i live in India and if i buy the above mentioned part from ebay, the shipping price is about 5 times the price of the product (so about 10+50= 60 dollars).

That's why i wanted to ask if it is possible to install another intel ax200 card but not the exact one that you mentioned?

As long as it has that L35282-005 SPS number on the Intel Wi-Fi card label, it should work.

If it has a different SPS number on the label, it will not work because that would probably be the vPro model.

L35282-005 is the SPS number for the non-vPro card.

This person installed one in the older 15-ec0xxx model series, and you can see the SPS # on the label indicating it is a non-vPro card.
