The series supports the following cards

 

Integrated Wireless options with dual antennas (M.2/PCIe):

  • Intel Dual band wireless-AC 3168 802.11AC 1×1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adaptor (non-vPro)
  • Realtek RTL8822BE 802.11 ac 2×2 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported)

 

Integrated Wireless options with single antenna (M.2/PCIe):

  • Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 9461 802.11 AC 1×1 WiFi + BT5 Combo Adapter (non-vPro) (MU-MIMO supported)
  • Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11 ac 1×1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported)
  • Realtek RTL8723DE 802.11 bgn 1×1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo

And your machine ONLY has the last one.

 

Since your machine only has 1 antenna therefore the best option is to replace it with the Realtek CE adapter part # L17365-005. You can also use the Intel AC9461, part #  L25889-005
