Hi! @bra101yan, Welcome to HP forums.

I understand that you have wireless issues with your laptop.

As you mentioned that windows 10 came preinstalled with your laptop. 

It is not recommended to downgrade the operating system as some functionalities on your laptop might stop working.

Your laptop is been designed to work with windows 10 not with windows 7. 

However, You can try updating BIOS and wireless drivers from the link below.

Wireless driver link: http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp76001-76500/sp76212.exe

BIOS update link: http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp76501-77000/sp76931.exe

If the issue still persists  after updating drivers, Please revert back the operating system to windows 10.

I will watch for your reply.

Have a great day! 🙂
