OMEN 17.3 inch Gaming Laptop PC 17-db0000 (9A9W0AV)

Hello,

I would like to know if I can upgrade my laptop with this WLAN card?

Intel
Intel Killer Wi-Fi 6E AX1675, WLAN + Bluetooth 5.3 Adapter - M.2/A-E-Key

M.2 expansion card from Intel: High-speed WLAN with 802.11ax standard and Bluetooth 5.3, up to 2.402 Gb/s, WPA/WPA2/WPA3

Or is it on the whitelist? If so, can you give me a PN which I can use to increase my transfer rate?

Thank you very much

Daniel

Hi @DanielR76 

 

I don't think it will work in your device, these cards usually need an Intel processor, but you can use the following one

 

MediaTek RZ616 Wi-Fi 6E Bluetooth 5.3 AIM-T WLAN N22541-005

 

It is the one recommended by HP in its service manual.

Hi there,

Thanks for the answer. I looked it up. The card is probably causing problems. Is there any other alternative?

I just want to have the same download speeds as with an Intel killer card.

Regards

Daniel

You can try a killer but it is at your own risk, try to buy from a reseller that accepts return of parts.That Wi-fi that you indicate, I do not have knowledge that some user has tested it, and when you have AMD processor has a greater risk that it does not work.
