The ethernet adapter is an integral part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.
If your PC has a Realtek RTL8822CE Wi-Fi adapter, you should be able to replace it with the Intel AX210 Wi-Fi 6E card.
Intel AX210 Wi-Fi 6E 2x2 AX + Bluetooth 5.2 M.2 2230 non-vPro HP part # / SPS # M27269-005
If it has a different model card, you will have to let me know what model Wi-Fi adapter your PC comes with.
The card might be able to provide more than a 1 GB/S throughput depending on the signal strength and whatnot.

I know that, and I have already informed you that since the ethernet adapter is an integral part of the motherboard it cannot be upgraded.
I recommended the Intel AX210 Wi-Fi adapter as an alternative option since it has maximum throughput of 2.4 GHz per second.
Your only option for an ethernet adapter upgrade would be a USB 3 to RJ 45 ethernet adapter.
