dv7-7238nr wireless card replacement

I would like to replace the card wireless in my dv7 7238nr...

I want to upgrade to 802.11ac but and difficult to discern where I could find said replacement.

So, my questions are: 1) is a simple replacement PCIe; (2) where can I buy one (3) in my machine the location map (also struggling to find any sort of comprehensive covering the dv7).

TIA;

I agree with your assessment... I tried to find a 802.11ac card with chips not Intel that would be "accepted" by the BIOS.

However, the manual of the product for the 7238nr lists only b/g/n card (Realink, Qualcomm, etc..)

So I guess I'll be become familiar with HP support phone tree until they inform me (inevitably) that what I want can be done with an internal replacement card. And I thought using a USB adapter instead?

Ugly solution, but I'll do it if I have to.

I think that the usb adapter will also be the best option.

  • HP Pavilion ZD8000 wireless card replacement

    Hi all, there

    I have a bad wireless card and bought a new one using the HP number #392591-001. It is said it is expected to work in my computer, but I install and said material is not configured right and is not working.

    Here can someone help me find a driver that works or I'm SOL on that. I looked everywhere I know how to find a driver and on the HP website, there is no driver for it.

    Thank you very much.

    OH and my computer will start but will not just set up the wireless card. I think the driver for it is missing. I install the original map and it shows in my devices list just inoperable. I can connect via the Ethernet that no prob and my bluetooth work ok.

    Ciao

    Hey once again Paul,

    OK, so here's the deal. I finally got a response from the boys that I bought and it's the pilot, they sent me. It may just be the same thing on you sent me that I don't know.

    http://www.jhetech.com/eBay/Download/Driver%20For%20BCM94318%20Laptop%20Wireless.exe

    What I did then was to use the manual config when hardware Setup detects new hardware, I pointed directly in the driver instead of searching for him and low and here is it started working. Yay for that.

    I have honestly no idea of what happened, but worked so I guess it's good for me. Thanks a lot for your help and I don't know the driver you sent me would have worked if I'd done it before. I really appreciate the help very much. I also don't know why it didn't find the driver from the start since is is a replacement of hp.

    OH, well you are very useful and hope you have a great day and happy Christmas to you...

  • Pavillion G6 A1J18AV: What is the appropriate wireless card replacement

    Existing wireless adapter seems dead (wireless light remains orange and the wireless card does not appear in Device Manager).

    After reading the owner's manual, I chose one of the pieces of the table - 593127-001.  Unfortunately, when starting, I get the message "Unsupported Wireless Module".  Message contains ' ID of Module WLAN (702).  I chose precisely the part of the repair to avoid this problem, but of course I'm missing some information.

    How can I know what part is the correct replacement part?  I would have chosen the exact part that has been in the computer (639967-011), but it does not appear on the HP spare parts.

    Thank you

    -Kevin

    Hi, Kevin:

    That'd be the part, you have to get.

    IMO, it would be cheaper to get a card used but tested on eBay.

  • HP dv7-4080us wireless card problem

    HP Support Assistant recently had me download a new driver for the card wireless Intel Wifi Link 1000 BGN on my HP dv7-4080us laptop. After the update, the card wireless could not be detected, so I shut down the computer and turned on again. During the boot process, a check of the hard drive was made, and hundreds of messages about corrupt files displayed. I do not know the extent of the corruption, and my wireless card cannot always be detected. I can't use a previous system restore point, because somehow the hard drive space allocated for restore points has been set at 0%. Any suggestions on the best way to go about fixing this?

    Update:

    I was previously impossible to restore to the previous driver, these options are dimmed in the Device Manager. After another reboot, they worked, and I restored the WiFi capabilities. However, my anti-virus software is unable to locate its base of virus, probably due to corrupt files. I reinstall the software now. I don't know what other problems caused file corruption. I am hoping that a new installation of the operating system is not necessary.

  • Qosmio X 500 / 02 G-wireless card replacement

    Hi everyone, I need to find where the realtek wireless card in my laptop X 500/02 G I want to swap more for a better card to use on my desktop in my computer room.

    my laptop comes with a card Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n and when the laptop is on my desk, it connects to my router Wireless N 30 feet more distance, but strength is not very good and it does not connect to the internet sometimes, or its slow.

    I have a laptop Satellite A350 as well who has a card Intel(r) WiFi Link 5100 AGN in it, and if I'm sitting this laptop at the same place as I get up to 5 or 6 Mb/ps connection/download speed where the card realtek gets under 1 Mb/ch

    I want to remove the A350 Intel wireless card and put it in my qosmio but I can't find the card realtek under any of the ram or hard drive cover under the laptop then I guess the laptop everything based needs in order to access the card to remove it.

    I was told the card Intel(r) WiFi Link 5100 AGN is better that the card Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n, but why has not done toshiba card wifi accessible in the qosmio.

    I can't find a maintenanve or manual for this laptop, only a user guide has nothing on the location map wifi repair.

    any help appreciated.

    Hello

    As far as I know the NIC wireless on the Qosmio X 500 is placed under the keyboard if you want to have access to the wireless network adapter, you must remove the keyboard first.
    Can you do it alone?

    Please be careful with this stuff. Unauthorized action can cancel the warranty.

  • HP DV6-7014nr wireless card replacement

    Hi all.

    I currently have a HP DV6-7014nr with Windows installed 8.1 and parts of stock out of the box.  I noticed that the stock is an internal wireless card is not dual-band.  It is a very large problem with my current situation, in which I can't take advantage of the possible bandwidth to my ordinary place almost as well as if I had installed dual card.  The warranty is already in place, so I am not concerned by the cancellation of the warranty, I just want to know if the card that I'm looking work inside the laptop.  I was going to buy a wireless card Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 HMWWB for my laptop, and I need to know if this card will work correctly with inside my laptop.  Thanks in advance.

    Well have the driver on the hard disk or on a key USB available for install after you pass cards. You can't install the driver before the material is present in the computer.

    Also, you will probably find that Windows 8.1 has built in the driver of the Intel card.

    Otherwise download here for Windows 8.1 Intel driver and he is ready to go:

    Hello

    All compatible (with part numbers) cards start from page 24 of the manual even. I suggest using the Atheros AR9280 or Broadcom 4322. This is the wifi chip only, no combos with bluetooth but connectivity bluetooth can be added by a usb adapters. There are many of them on ebay.

    AR9280: 580101-002

    Broadcom 4322:582564 - 001

    These two circuits are for the U.S., etc...

    Edit: all three chips should work on your laptop, but these are only tokens of 1 x 1 single band and will not support the 5 GHz network. 600370 001 is a combo of Broadcom (4313) with bluetooth and the other is the same Broadcom (4313) but the only wifi chip.

  • Satellite P300-23F-mini-PCI Wireless card Replace?

    Question: would it be possible to replace the card of wireless mini-PCI Intel 5100AGN with version 4965AGN or 5300AGN?

    The thing is, recently I bought the Satellite P300-23F. Great laptop. Apart from one thing. I use the Intel 5100AGN wireless. Type of damage, the rest of the components used to build this laptop are high-end. I would have liked to see the 5300AGN of even the old 4965AGN adapter instead. These are both a bit more expensive, but still on the market for the price difference is a simple slice of $20. The 5100AGN TX is only 150 Mbit, which is half as fast as the two other Intel wireless modules. In general, a lot of people seem to have problems with the 5100AGN, seems to be a troublesome product altogether.

    Performance of the real world of the 5100AGN on a Linksys WRT54G is around 15 Mbps (1, 8 MB/s). My other computer laptop, equipped with a 4965AGN will be double that in the same circumstances. Tried all the drivers I could find, but the above values are the best I can get.

    I think that this should be possible, but you must use Mini-PCI cards.

  • HP Pavilion DV7-1444us Replace wireless card

    I recently updated my HP from Windows Vista to Windows 8. 1. the software works very well but I started having problems connecting to my Modum Cisco home through the Cox cable connection.  The computer worked fine for a few weeks then I had to miss the Modum for a short period of connection successfully until he finally stopped the connection.  A newer Dell computer in our household connects every time.  Is my connection problem, a bad wireless card or software associated with the upgrade of the software?  If it is a bad card, what is the DECA wireless recommended to buy with the part number and can engineer but not a computer experienced person like me, proceed with the installation?  Thanks, gh

    Hi 393871345,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    This wireless problem could be caused by the failure of hardware or software. Now, you can go through the steps to exclude the possibilities of the cause.

    (1) not having this problem with the laptop before upgrading to Windows 8.1?

    (2) when you upgrade to 8.1 Windows, did you follow all of the HP and Windows updates?

    To be able to test the unit itself, I suggest the document following "tests to material (Windows 7, Vista) failures. Please select the control using HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFIoption and then select the option for the Component Tests. Under component Tests, you will see an option for the Wireless Module. The Wireless Module passes all the tests?

    Now I'm longer lines that it is a software problem, compared to a hardware problem. After checking what Windows operating systems are supported by HP (on your laptop), the higher operating system that is supported, is Windows 7. As you have upgraded beyond this, you may be able to find the driver updated, you need the component manufacturer.

    To find out the manufacturer of the wireless component, you can always check for the name of the manufacturer's Device Manager. Once you don't have the name, you can visit the Web site of the manufacturers for available updates.

    Please let me know the results of the above steps.
