I bought an (Wireless N) card online, it was an HP Part Number on a sticker on the reverse (Rev 1 00 SPS 730668-001) and on the front of the card below Barcode is written (HP P/N 666914-00) and below that (SPS#697316-001).At the bottom, on the reverse sticker, it is printed as BCM943228HMB. The reason I'm asking is because my Wifi works occasionally but does drop out a lot. I went in to Driver Advanced settings and switched off Bluetooth Collaboration to try to improve Wifi which it seemed to but still drops off too much. Could I have bought an incompatible card? Many Thanks
