HP 14 Notebook
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

Hi

I have a HP 14 Notebook that is currently being used for school purposes. However, at school, the WiFi is dual band, and therefore I cannot connect.  At the moment I have a Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 802.11b/g/n WiFi adapter and I am aware that it is not dual band. So is there any way to replace the current single band adapter with a dual band one? If it is possible to replace the adpater, then do you have any suggestions of what to buy and how to install the product into my notebook. If there is a free alternative, please keep me informed.

Thanks in advance.
