Hi:

 

Here is the link to the driver you need for the usb controller...

 

This package contains the Renesas USB 3.0 driver. This driver is available for supported notebook models with supported operating systems.

There can be one of many different model wifi cards HP could have installed in your notebook.

 

Please post the hardware ID for the device you see listed in the device manager labeled as a Network Controller.

 

Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID.

After you provide that info, I will post the link to the wireless card driver you need.
