Upgrading of HP Envy-15 J126TX Wifi Combo to Wifi 6

[Digic21]

Hi,

The Broadcom Azure Wifi Bluetooth Combo mini PCI-E card which comes with the Notebook just died.  I am thinking of taking the opportunity to upgrade the notebook to enable Wifi 6 support.  Can anyone advise if I can just buy any mini PCI-E Combo card which support Wifi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 to plug it in?

Thanks.

Hi:

It should work.

This forum member just installed one in an older notebook than yours.

Where you can find a HMC form factor AX wifi card, that I do not know, but the person on that link told me that he got the card from China Taobao.

Cool!  Appreciate for referring me to the post and thanks for the speedy response.  I will try asking him which card he bought.  🙂

You're very welcome.

Please post back and let us know if the AX card upgrade worked in your notebook.

WIll do.  But it may not be so fast because will have to await reply from the other user and shipping of the item to me may take awhile.

But I will definitely post here on the outcome once I got the confirmation.

Thank you.
