Yes, but tell them you want a dual band wifi adapter BUT as I said above, your machine may be able to, not a direct replacement.

Your machine supports slower speed only. What is your HP Pavillion 15 notebook pc  ? You may be able to replace Broadcom BCM43142 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi Adapter with a faster adapter.
