Product: HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-c0000 (2W0J3AV)

Need to add the AUX wifi antenna as I want to replace the WIFI NIC. that has two antenna option and the one that comes factory suck- compared to the intel nics that hardly drop any pings on the same wifi setup.  Anyone know of a similar antenna I can add- product name or link would be nice. TIA

Hi:

 

You will have to find and buy the dual antenna kit listed in chapter 3, page 22 of the service manual.

 

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

 

Dual antenna    HP part # M50375-001

 

You will only need to add the missing AUX antenna wire.

 

The part is not orderable from HP.

 

Looks like they have some on eBay.
