Can I upgrade the wifi card in my Toshiba Portege R835-P55X? It currently has the original 802.11 bgn card and I would like to upgrade to a card with ac wifi and/or bluetooth if possible. Thanks for any information or help anyone can provide me.

I just recently completed an upgrade on a Portege R835-P50x running Windows 10 to the intel 7260ac wifi/Bluetooth card. In order for Bluetooth to appear in Device Manager pin 51 on the 7260 needs to be taped over before installation. Refer to online tutorials and videos to do this. It is fairly easy.
