This is the Service Manual:
See p. 17. This is the wireless module:
WLAN 11AC INT 3165 M.2 MOW 806723-005
This is wireless and bluetooth.

The problem is the firmware for the 3165 card. You have to input the suggested commands to get the kernel to add the wireless firmware. The 3165 card is supposed to "just work" in Ubuntu 16.10 or make sure your Linux kernel is 4.1 or higher and preferably 4.2 or higher.
