Hi:

 

Your notebook probably only has one antenna cable connected to the wifi card in there now.

 

The only dual band wifi/Bluetooth card that will work with one antenna is this one...

 

Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11ac 1 × 1 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported)    HP Part # L17365-005

 

The only place that I know of where you can find one is on eBay.  That card has been on back order for months at the HP parts store.

If you don't need Bluetooth, install the Intel 7265 AC card that is listed in chapter 3 of the service manual for your notebook's model series, and connect the single antenna to the PC's main antenna terminal.

 

The Bluetooth won't work with one antenna cable.
