Wifi card upgrade

[Bashi008]

I have hp laptop 15 da 2037tu  model with realtek rtl8821ce wifi card I need to upgrade it because it's broken, what are the upgrade options do I have. Also, does realtek rtl8822ce card support my laptop?

In order to upgrade the wireless card, you would need to install a second antenna wire, which to do it properly would require extensive disassembly of the notebook.

I recommend you replace the RTL8821CE with a new one of the same model.

Below is the link to the service manual.

If you install a model such as the RTL8822CE without adding a second antenna wire, you will not have Bluetooth reception.

I have already installed a second antenna wire for my HP 15-da 2037du laptop, which had a single antenna network card (Realtek RTL8821CE). What are the best options for upgrading my network card?

I'd go with either one of these two:

Intel AX210 Wi-Fi 6E 2x2 AX + Bluetooth 5.2 M.2 2230 non-vPro   HP part # / SPS # M27269-005

Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 ax 2×2 + Bluetooth 5.0 MU-MIMO M.2 2230 non-vPro   HP Part # / SPS # L35282-005.
