Hi:

 

Looking at your screenshot, there is no wireless adapter device listed.  Nor is there a bluetooth device, which is part of the wireless card.

 

Could be one of two things...

 

You need to install the HP Connection Manager software, restart the PC and turn on the wifi by using the software.

 

This package provides the HP Connection Manager for the supportednotebook models and operating systems.

Now, if the HP connection manager software does not detect a wifi adapter, the most likely the wifi adapter has failed, and needs to be replaced with one listed in the service manual for your notebook.

 

Before replacing the wifi adapter, you may want to first try removing and reseating the device to make sure the contacts make a good connection.  Sometimes they get oxidized and you lose the electronic contact.

 

When you remove and reseat the card, try and leave the antennas connected to the wifi card, to facilitate easy reinstallation.

 

Here is the link to the service manual for your model series...
