HP 15-ac135ng
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Original:  Realtek RTL8723BE 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi Adapter

 

What is the corresponding part in parts.hp.com ?

 

Or, if it is not available at HP: who is a trusty external source for this WLAN-Adapter?
I bought a part via ebay, but they sent a wrong part.

 

Thx in advance for your hints,

Josef / b-757

Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

The part number for the wifi card you need is:  792610-005

 

If you want to experiment, you may be able to upgrade to this model wifi card...

 

Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported) HP part # L17365-005.

 

You can find this model on eBay, or Ali Express. 

 

I see some Intel 3165 cards listed on the eBay listings, so don't buy those.

RTL8821CE - Buy RTL8821CE with free shipping on AliExpress

 

On the Ali Express listings, make sure the card has the HP Part # of 915620-001.

 

This discussion shows that it is possible to install the above card in the 15-acxxx model series and it works...
