Hi:

 

According to the parts list for your notebook, it comes with a Broadcom BCM43142 802.11 b/g/n 1x1 Wi-Fi and BlueTooth 4.0 M.2 combination WLAN adapter.

 

Any time you see a card with a suffix that ends in b/g/n, that means it is a single band 2.4 GHz only card.

 

Dual band wireless N cards have suffixes that end in a/b/g/n or a/g/n.
