I can only use 2.4GHZ with my wifi driver.  How am I able to use 5GHZ?

Please help.

You would have to physically remove the Realtek RTL8723DE 802.11b/g/n (1x1) and Bluetooth® 4.2 combo Wi-Fi adapter and install this model instead.

 

 

Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11 ac 1x1 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported) HP part # L17365-005.

 

The card has a maximum throughput of 433 MBPS on the 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi band with an AC router and an excellent signal.

 

Below is the link to the service manual, where you can find the Wi-Fi card removal and replacement procedure:
