@khchew2002 Welcome to HP Community!
I understand that the wifi speed very slow.
Do not worry. I will try to help you.
A few things to remember are mentioned below:
The compatibility of your router with the wireless card,
If the wireless card is 1x1: supports 2.4 GHz and below - slow connection and download/upload speed,
If it's 2x2 or more: support 5 GHz and above - Fast connected and speed.
Here are your Product specifications: Click here for details.
Your laptop support following Wifi cards.
