Hi:

The only two dual band Wi-Fi cards you can install in your notebook are these:

Dual band AC (max throughput of 867 MBPS on the 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi band).

Broadcom BCM4352 802.11ac 2x2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 combo   HP part #724935-001

Dual band N: (max throughput of 300 MBPS on the 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi band).

Broadcom BCM943228HMB 802.11 a/b/g/n 2x2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 combo  HP part # 730668-001

Below is the link to the service manual where you can find the Wi-Fi card removal and replacement procedure.

You're very welcome.

Your notebook has an AMD processor, correct?

None of the Intel cards listed in the service manual will work in a notebook with an AMD processor.

None of the other cards listed in the service manual are dual band.

Your notebook does not have a BIOS whitelist, so either of the two Broadcom cards should work in your notebook.

Yes, i have AMD processor A-10. Which wi-fi module om my processor has been worked with 5Ghz network? І need model of module

[Paul_Tikkanen]

OK, so either of the Broadcom cards I posted are what you want.

[Behemoth911]

That is either this "Broadcom BCM4352 802.11ac 2x2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 combo   HP part #724935-001

Dual band N: (max throughput of 300 MBPS on the 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi band). " or this: 

"Broadcom BCM943228HMB 802.11 a/b/g/n 2x2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 combo  HP part # 730668-001". It`s okay that they are not in the specification on my laptop?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Yes, since your notebook doesn't have a BIOS whitelist, even though those two cards aren't listed in the service manual, they should work just fine in your notebook, since back in those days the Broadcom dual band cards worked in notebooks with the AMD processors.
