Hello. I have an ASUS N53SV laptop that I've upgraded and maintained through the last few years and use it regularly. Currently rocking two SATA SSDs two, repasted with Arctic MX4 last summer. Currently typing on it. Good computer but the wireless is bad. The WiFi is tolerable actually but I can't connect my bluetooth headphones since maybe they're too new for the bluetooth in the wireless card. I want to upgrade the wireless card inside this thing if possible, how can I check for a whitelist besides having to spend money,put the card and then see it refuse to boot because of some whitelist? Couldn't find any information online. I'm not a native english speaker so thanks for excusing any errors.

These are the accessories included with the laptop; a half-height card is provided.
You can find the Intel AC-7260HMW here:

Ensure your laptop runs the latest BIOS version and remove your existing wireless adapter drivers manually, then reinstall them via an elevated command, such as right-clicking the installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
