I have bought this laptop 2 years backs and I want to upgrade my WLAN card as its a bgn and suports only 1 band i.e 2.4Gz I want to access the 5Gz Band as thats faster then the 2.4Gz so is there any suggestions which card should I buy to replace and will be compatible with my laptop.
I have a HP Envy Model Number 14t-j000 and product number : L3P55AV with a Windows 10 64 Bit OS in it 12 gb ram with a 1Tb of HDD.

HP released this series around June 2015. No whielist therefore it supports many wifi cards. But to be safe, please use the following cards
- Broadcom BCM943142 802.11 bgn 1×1 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 M.2 Combo Adapter part # 792608-00
- Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 802.11 ac 2×2 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter part # 793840-005
- Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 802.11 ac 1×1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter part # 784644-005
Both AC cards support dual bands (2.4GHz and 5.0GHz). You can replace wireless card yourself (very rare) using instructions from page 31 of the following manual

Note: 14t-j000 and 14-j000 laptops use same components.
Refards.
