Replace Realtek RTL8822CE PCIe Adapter?

Subject: WiFi card replacement in HP 15s-eq2103ur AMD Ryzen™ 7 5700U  - which one will work?

Hello!

Laptop: HP 15s-eq2103ur 
Current card: Realtek RTL8822CE (M.2 2230, Key E)

Replacement attempt:
- Bought Intel AX210NGW (M.2 2230)
- Physically installed it
- Bluetooth from the new card works
- BUT: WiFi card is not visible in lspci (Linux) or Windows Device Manager
- Looks like BIOS whitelist issue

Questions:
1. Will Intel AX200NGW  work with my HP model?
2. Does HP 15s-eq2xxx series have BIOS whitelist?
3. Can AX200 bypass whitelist better than AX210?
4. Does anyone have experience replacing WiFi card in this model?

Thanks!

Hi:

The only better Wi-Fi card that I know of that might work in your PC is this one:

Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 802.11ax 2 × 2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 5 (non-vPro)    HP part #/Intel SPS # L35282-005

This model card was used in the 15s-eq1000 model series according to this discussion:

Maybe the 15s-eq2xxx model series will support the same part number.
