Hi:

That model Wi-Fi adapter only works on the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi band.

If you want dual band, you will have to either use a dual band USB Wi-Fi adapter or this one dual band Wi-Fi card should work in your notebook if you want to replace the Broadcom card:

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

Below is the link to the service manual where you can find the Wi-Fi card removal and replacement procedure:
