Product: HP Notebook - 14-dq0011dx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I purchased the HP Notebook - 14-dq0011dx a couple of weeks ago and haven't had any issues with it; however, I purchased and set up a dual band wifi router at my house 2 days ago to get better wifi speed and coverage.  It was only after I set up the router that I discovered that this laptop does not support the 5GHz wifi band so I'm still limited to the slower 2.4GHz band.  I found this out 2 days after the return period on the laptop expired or I would've exchanged it for a laptop that does support 5GHz.

 

The laptop has a Realtek RTL8723DE 802.11b/g/n (1x1) and Bluetooth® 4.2 combo card/adapter and I am wondering if it's possible to upgrade the card internally to something that supports 2.4GHz and 5GHz?  If so, what cards/adapters are compatible with this laptop?

 

Thank you.
