I hope this message finds you well.
I own an HP Pavilion 17-e163sg laptop and I am considering upgrading its internal Wi-Fi card. Before proceeding, I would like to request the following information:
1. Compatibility List: Could you please provide a list of Wi-Fi cards that are officially compatible with this model?
2. BIOS Whitelist: Is there a BIOS whitelist for this device, and if so, where can I access it?
3. Upgrade Documentation: Are there any official documents or service manuals that detail which components (e.g., Wi-Fi cards) can be upgraded in this laptop?
I would greatly appreciate any guidance or resources you can share to help ensure a smooth and safe upgrade process.

I'm afraid I don't have specific details about compatible Wi-Fi cards for the HP Pavilion 17-e163sg model, as that can vary depending on the hardware configuration and region. However, here are some general steps and considerations you can take into account when upgrading the Wi-Fi card in your laptop:

1. Compatibility: Typically, compatible Wi-Fi cards are determined by the chipset on the motherboard and any BIOS restrictions put in place by HP. It is often recommended to use Wi-Fi cards that were originally available as options from HP for that model. To find this information, you might want to check the product specifications on the HP support website or consult the technical manual for your laptop.

2. BIOS Whitelist: Some HP laptops have a whitelist in the BIOS that restricts the Wi-Fi cards that can be used. The list is usually not publicly available, and to find out if your BIOS has a whitelist, it might require contacting HP support directly for assistance or checking online forums where other users of the same model might have shared their experiences.

3. Consult Technical Support: It would be ideal to contact HP's official support for precise information on compatible Wi-Fi cards and any BIOS-related restrictions. They could provide the most accurate and model-specific advice.
