Your machine has following parts

 

             https://partsurfer.hp.com/partsurfer?searchtext=LW415UA

 

It ONLY has  Realtek 8188GN PCIe Half MiniCard (HMC) WiFi adapter - 802.11b/g/n 1x1 part #  640926-001 which supports 2.4GHz networks only therefore you need to check and allow your router to broadcast both (dual) bands which are 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz, your machine can see 2.4GHz SSID and allow you to connect.
