Hi:
it is not possible to remove the BIOS whitelist, and there are only 3 cards listed as supported for your model.
Seems like it uses the same manual as the 250 G4...chapter 3 of the maintenance and service guide.

None of them are dual band...

Hi:
Most likely your notebook only has one antenna cable connected to the Realtek card in there now.
All but one dual band AC cards require two antenna cables be connected to them.
This card is not listed as supported in your notebook, so you would be taking a chance on it, but it is the only one that might work...
Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported)
L17365-005/915620-001/915621-001
The only place I have been able to find them is on eBay.

Your model must have a BIOS whitelist which prevents any wifi card not listed in the service manual from working.
If that is the case, the card I posted won't work either.
But I have a question...isn't the BCM94352Z a Half Mini Card?
They make BCM94352Z in a M.2 form factor?
The Realtek 8723BE card your notebook has is a M.2 card according to the parts list and this picture.
