Hello, I have an HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2015nt

I have a Realtek RTL8852AE Wi-Fi 6 card installed, but I'm not happy with this card. It constantly lags my Wi-Fi. I want to replace it. When I researched it, I found that the Intel AX210NGW Wi-Fi card is good, but I don't know if it's compatible with my device. Could anyone with information help me out, or do you have a different model suggestion?

Hi:

 

According to this discussion the AX210 will not work in a 15-ec2xxx notebook.

If you want to do a swap to a better (in my opinion) Wi-Fi 6 card, the Intel AX200 is supported but you need to get this part number:

 

Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 802.11ax 2 × 2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 5.0     HP part # L35282-005

 

I would try updating the Realtek Wi-Fi driver to the latest version HP currently has and see if that helps before installing a different model Wi-Fi card.

Hello, I tried updating the current wifi card information by installing almost every work I could find, but I did not see any difference, so I decided to change the cancellation. Is there a way I can check this whitelist from my own device?

 When I searched for the device in question on the internet, I found this one among the sellers I could reach. As seen in this photo, the label on the device has the code SPS:L35282-005 and based on this, I think this card will work in my computer. Is there anything else I should pay attention to? 

HP Recommended

Yes, that would be the correct card since the SPS# matches the HP part number.

 

The only things you need to do are:

 

Before installing the Intel card, uninstall the Realtek Wi-Fi card and driver in the device manager and do the same thing for the Realtek Bluetooth adapter and driver.

 

Then the only other thing to be concerned about is to be extremely careful when removing and replacing the thin and delicate antenna wire connectors.

 

This video I found on YouTube may be of help with opening up the notebook and there is a quick section for removing the antenna wires.

Thank you very much for your answer. Chat gpt probably will be compatible as you said. It's important that the HP Subvendor ID card be made specifically for HP. For example, a value like 8086:2723 + 103C:8821 is used. Generic AX200 cards sold on Amazon, AliExpress, etc. are usually Intel's generic version. Some don't have HP's subvendor ID and may not work. I received this response. The ID checked by the whitelist is important. I suspect that if I buy from any vendor, it will be listed as generic. In the forum you first replied to, someone said it worked with an AX200 card, but not with an AX210 card. Did they test the AX200 card with an original HP part, or was it a generic card? How can I tell?

You're very welcome.

 

The part number I posted is in the HP parts list for the 15-ec2000 model series with no other identifiers.

 

Here's the parts list for a 15-ec2xxx which came with the Intel AX200:

The person in the discussion I posted indicated they installed an AX200 and nothing more.

 

I would not be overly concerned about going beyond the information I posted, because finding any other details will be next to impossible.

I want to update again. I installed v6001.10.356.3 as driver. Yesterday when I tested it, I got very good performance. There was no lag problem. Today I turned on the computer again and encountered an extreme lag problem. Then I shared the internet via cable from my phone, connected to the same internet. The ping worked stable and without any problems. Then when I switched back to the wifi on the computer, the same problem continued. Yesterday the card worked stable. Today it became impossible to watch videos on YouTube. This is ridiculous (note: I did not change the Realtek card). 

HP Recommended

Yes, it is ridiculous and you may want to switch to the Intel AX200 if those wide inconsistencies continue,
