According to chapter 3 of the service manual, only Realtek Wi-Fi cards were offered in the model series.

That card also only comes with one Wi-Fi antenna wire and any other equivalent or better model Wi-Fi card would need two antenna wires in order to work properly.

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to update the Wi-Fi driver to the latest version HP currently has available if you have not done so already.
