Hello. Please tell me which WiFi 6 pci-e modules support HP Pavilion 15,6" 15-eh1000 (2K4Y7AV)?
I want to replace the current Realtek RTL8xxx
Thanks.

Hi:
If your notebook has the Realtek RTL8822CE AC wifi adapter, you can upgrade to either of the two other WiFi 6 cards listed in chapter 3 page 17 of your notebook's service manual.
Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)
If your notebook has the Realtek RTL8821CE wifi adapter, that only has one antenna wire connected to it, so an AX card will not work properly with only one antenna wire.

Thanks for the answer.
In the description there is a Realtek 8852AE Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.2 WLAN module, as I understand it, this is RTL8852AE? This is true? In the manual, for some reason, he does not have the RTL prefix.

You're very welcome.
The Realtek RTL8852AE Wi-Fi 6 is an AX Wi-Fi adapter, so there is no need to change it as you should be getting Wi-Fi 6 throughput with an AX router.
Your only other option would be to replace it with the Intel one listed in the service manual, but the performance should be the same.
