I reviewed your post and I understand that you want to upgrade the wireless card on the computer.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

I checked the specifications of your computer and below are the tested wireless cards on the computer.

 

● Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 802.11 bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi adapter (with single antenna)

● Realtek RT8188 802.11bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi Adapter

● Realtek RT8723BE 802.11bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter

● Realtek RT8188EE 802.11 bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi adapter

● Realtek RT8723BE 802.11 bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi + BT4.0 combo adapter

● Broadcom BCM43142 802.11 bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 HMC combo adapter

● QCA 9565 802.11bgn 1x1 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter

 

Integrated wireless options with dual antennas (HMC/PCIe)

Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi + BT 4.0 combo adapter (with dual antennas)

 

Only Inter AC 3160 is a dual-band wireless card that is tested on the computer and it comes with a dual antenna. However, you need to check on your computer whether there is an option to connect dual antennas.

 

Refer to the below service guide for more information.
