HP Recommended
Product: HB 15 BS658TX (Model: HP Laptop 15-bs0xx)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am only able to see the 2.4Ghz Networks but there is my 5Ghz also which I can't see. I saw in Product description that It supports 802.11n and others. Is this a Driver related limitation, please help me to resolve this issue as I want to connect laptop with 5Ghz wifi network without external Dongle using inbuilt Hardware if possible. 

Thanks

Hi:

 

Your notebook has a single band wifi adapter that only connects to the 2.4 GHz wifi band.

 

The only way you will be able to not use an external dual band wifi adapter, would be to replace the Realtek RTL8723DE wifi adapter your notebook has, with this one...

 

Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported) HP part # L17365-005.

 

You can find this model on eBay, or Ali Express,

 

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=L17365-005&_sacat=0&_sop=15

 

The card will have the same 72 MBPS throughput as the original wifi card on the 2.4 GHz wifi band, but on the 5.0 GHz wifi band, it will have a max throughput of 433 MBPS when you have an AC router with an excellent wifi signal strength.

 

Below is the link to the service manual, where you can find the wifi card removal and replacement procedure.
