Hi All,
I am new to the site, and have a HP G62-b20sa laptop of which I would like to upgrade the wireless card inside. Currently, it contains a Broadcom Bluetooth and Wireless card, pre-installed. However, I would like to upgrade the card to a combination card which supports 5GHZ. I cannot, however, do this as currently the BIOS is whitelisted.
At present, it is running BIOS Version: F.2B. Here is a link to the laptop on the HP website: LINK
Would it be possible to provide me with an un-whitelisted version of the BIOS and also instructions on how to upgrade the BIOS so that I am able to install a 5GHZ card?
Also, could anyone recommend any Bluetooth/Wifi (5GHZ) combination cards that I could use?
I should also mention that it is running an AMD Phenom II processor.
Thanks for any help! It is much appreciated!
UPDATE: Here is a direct link to the current BIOS: http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55501-56000/sp55657.exe
I am also considering using an Intel 6235 card - does anyone have any experience/reviews on it?
