Looking for replacement internal wifi card that supports Windows 10

[cwhits]

Hi - I have been struggling with my wifi continuously dropping since the latest Windows 10 update (it happened with the last update and I forget what I did to get it to work all the time)...   I would like to replace the card that I have if possible (it is the Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1030)...  CAN I replace this card with a Windows 10 compatible card and if so, WHICH ONE?  IF NOT, what USB adaptor do you all recommend.  I realize this laptop is VERY OLD but it works perfectly for what I need it for at home.  Thanks for your help!

Hi, Chris:

Since HP had a BIOS whitelist in that model series which prevents the installation of any wifi cards that didn't come with your notebook, your only option would be to install a USB wifi adapter.

Here are some options for you to review...
