This is the HP Part number for your existing adapter:

 

WLAN module Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 802.11AC 2x2 WiFi + BT 4.2 Combo Adapter (non-vPro) 901229-855

 

Yours is a pretty good wi-fi adapter. You could go to a newer Intel series non-VPRO but also in the NGFF or M.2 form factor

 

L35282-005

Not many problems reported with the ax200 but the ax210 has been giving problems.  You have no BIOS whitelist so you can ignore older internet warnings about HP wifi cards. 

 

Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.

Good question. Download them to the desktop or other place and do not extract and install them until you have swapped in the new card. 

 

Newest versions:
