Product: HP ZBook Studio G5 Mobile Workstation

Would I be able to switch out the WLAN cards from WIFI 5 to WIFI 6? Or is it bios locked?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi:

 

Unfortunately, no one here would be able to tell you if your notebook has a BIOS whitelist or not.

 

Most HP notebooks made in 2014 or later do not, but there are exceptions.

 

The only way we find out if other Wi-Fi cards not listed in the notebook's service manual are supported, is when someone performs such an upgrade and reports the results.

 

I can only find one related discussion where someone wanted to upgrade the Wi-Fi adapter in a zBook, and you can read the answer I gave him.

 

Solved: HP zBook 14 G5 - Wifi 6 - HP Support Community - 7998239

 

You can also find the AX200 on eBay by searching by the HP part number.
