You own a dv6-7070el notebook.
The following processors are compatible.
I suggest using the HP part numbers(see below)

Kindly look on the bottom of the notebook for the ProdID in the tiny print.

Press the power button and then start tapping the F10 key to invoke the BIOS.
In the System Information section of the BIOS, there will be a product number. Write it down and then press the F10 key to exit discarding changes.
Kindly post it here.

Unfortunately, your notebook has only the 1X1 antenna setup which won't work with a MIMO wifi adapter.
You would be better off buying a USB wifi dongle and plugging it into a USB port. They are available in such small sizes that you can leave it plugged into the port.
The following link shows an example of what I mean . It is an 802.11ac adapter with download speeds up to 867Mbps.

If you use the HP part number to source the upgrade processor, that will not be an issue.
The part numbers come from the Maintenence and Service guide for your notebook. See the pdf web document below

You can download the CPU-z utilty to see which processor and socket type is installed in your notebook. It is a safe utility to use.
