Hi, I have a similar question. I have a Realtek RTL8723DE 802.11b/g/n PCIe Adapter on an HP 15-db1903ng laptop. I would like to update my laptop to the 5g band. My router already supports it and I can access the dual band with other devices. I would highly appreciate useful advice. Many thanks.

Hi:

 

Since your notebook only has one antenna cable, there is only one dual band AC wifi card you can upgrade to.

 

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


The only place I have been able to find this model is on eBay.

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=L17365-005&_sacat=0&_sop=15

 

The card has the same throughput as the RTL8723DE on the 2.4 GHz wifi band, but on the 5.0 GHz wifi band with an AC router, it has a maximum throughput of 433 MBPS.
