Hello community,
I bought the notebook hp-14-dk0002ng last year and now I want to upgrade the wifi card to a 5 ghz module.
In this manual http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06242992 I found the following ones:
dual antennas:
Realtek RTL8822BE 802.11ac 2 × 2 Wi-Fi + BT 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported)
single antenna:
Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11ac 1 × 1 Wi-Fi + BT 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported)
I don't know which one I could choose.
Can you help me.
