    So when you switched the wifi+bt did it recognize on boot as registered card or did the bios say it doesn't recognize the wifi+br card? If it says that then you won't be able to use the intel wifi+bt card and you will have to search on here in the dv6 thread to see if someone has made a mod to the DV6 bios firmware to remove the whitelist.

    Here is the service manual listing for it and it doesn't indicate a intel bluetooth option for you.
    Here is the site I used to find that info:

    Ralink RT3090BC4 802.11b/g/n 1x1 WiFi and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR Combo Adapter
    Intel® Centrino® Advanced–N + WiMAX 6250 WLAN module
    Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000 802.11b/g/n 1x2
    Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n 1x1 WLAN module
    Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n 1x1 WiFi and 2070 Bluetooth 2.1+EDR Combo Adapter
    Broadcom 43225 802.11b/g/n WLAN module
