Can I upgrade laptop network card to Wi-Fi 6e?

Can I upgrade the network card on this laptop to a Wi-Fi 6e Gigabit Card?  

If so, will I have to go into the Bios to disable old card, etc?

Please refer to page 3 in the Service Guide: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05985614 for list of compatible WLan cards

Thank you

SO, there's no way to upgrade to wifi 6ax201?!

Okay, I need to cancel the order...I need a Wifi6ax201...

Thank you.

Unfortunately the Notebook has only been tested with the list fo WLan cards,

The Wifi6ax201 might work but HP cannot guarantee the functionality

Thank you

I put in a cancellation of the 17z0ca200---hopefully, they can cancel the order.  I wanted to buy another laptop from the HP store--but, they didn't have this particular laptop in stock---however--if I DO get the cancellation and refund--I will buy this laptop: HP 17-by3063st--it has the wifi6ax--and, I can always upgrade the ram and hard drive if I want---and, I believe Intel is a better processor than AMD? 

AND, if I DON'T get the cancellation--they will ship my 17z-ca200 to me--at that point, I WILL try to install a wifi6ax card---hopefully, it works. And, if not, I hope I can put the original card back in and experience no issues thereafter....
