With its ages, due to the whitelist in BIOS, the chance to upgrade to modern wifi adapter is very slim to none. You can simply use something similar to

There are many around and cheaper. I'm using it now on my 8/9 years old machine and very happy with it. I actually use old internal adapter and new external adapter at the same time and machine is smart enough to use the new one to download
Regards.
