Product: HP Elite Book 2570p
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just upgraded  home WiFi to 1 Gbps wifi speed. On the HP 2570 laptop I'm still getting only 300Mbps max.  On my tablet and phone I'm getting 866Mbps. Question:  Would a 866Mbps 802.11ac WiFi dongle give me the higher speed on the HP 2570 or is this laptop limited to getting 300Mbps?  Thank you.

Hi:

 

If you purchase an ac1200 or higher USB wifi adapter, it should connect at 867 MBPS.

 

The ac600 adapters connect at 433 MBPS.
