@37Dodge Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you would like to upgrade the wifi card.

(HP does not recommend upgrades as the device is equipped with parts that perform at its optimal performance and also, the upgradeable parts listed in HP articles are purely for your ease, though the decision to upgrade will be at your own discretion)

I have checked the manual ( page number 2)

Your model Support for the RTL8822BE ac 2×2 MU-MIMO+Bluetooth® 4.2 M.2 PCIe WW with 2 antennas

I would suggets you contact our phone support and check for the option. They will help you.

1)Click on this link - www.hp.com/contacthp/
