Hi:

I can't find any specs on your notebook.

What model Wi-Fi adapter does it currently have installed?

Hi:

Unfortunately, that card only uses one Wi-Fi antenna wire, and any other dual band AC/AX Wi-Fi card will need two antenna wires in order for both the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to work.

If you can live without Bluetooth or want to order the antenna kit listed in chapter 3 of your notebook's service manual. and completely disassemble the notebook including the display panel to properly run the second antenna wire, this dual band AX card should work:

Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 ax 2×2 + Bluetooth 5.0 MU-MIMO M.2 2230 non-vPro with 2 antenna(s)    HP part # L35282-005

You can find this model Wi-Fi card on eBay.

Search by the HP part number, not the model of the Wi-Fi card.

Below is the link to the service manual.
