University prefers an Intel-based wireless adapter if possible

[Momof598]

Does the HP 15.6" Touchscreen Business & Home Laptop, Intel i5-1334U 10-Core CPU, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD have this type of wireless adapter?

Hi @Momof598 

In principle, considering that it has an Intel processor, it's possible, but you'll need to provide the laptop's full model number so we can help.

Yes, you can use the AX210, for example

So this is an intel based one?

As you can tell,  I'm not well versed in anything like this. I just want to be sure to get him what they are saying he needs.

I'm not familiar with AI-based Wi-Fi cards, but this is a Wi-Fi 6 card that uses the same protocol as your current Wi-Fi card; however, in my experience, it's of higher quality than the one you have now.

Okay thank you

Hi, @Momof598 

Just make sure that you buy the non-vPro version of the AX210.

This is the HP part #/Intel SPS # you should look for:

Intel AX210 Wi-Fi 6E 2x2 AX + Bluetooth 5.2 M.2 2230 non-vPro   HP part # / SPS # M27269-005

So, do I have to buy this separately. It's not something that's in the laptop?
