Your machine was built before mid year 2014 therefore due to the whitelist in BIOS upgrading its wifi card not on the list is impossible. You can use USB adapter such as

or similar.

Oh no I really hope that's not going to be what's going to happen because I've already ordered it now I got a lot of acceptance on reddit about this are you absolutely sure that this card won't work because I've already ordered it now 😞

Also thank you very much for your help this is really appreciated

As there somewhere I can learn about the white list because I couldn't find much on it is that basically what it is that anything before around 2014 can't be upgraded to modern day tech?

Do you know a place where I can find this whitelist because I can't seem to find much on it anywhere

My first solution was actually to buy one of these usb dongles but I'm actually running all over my internet off of my phone 5g hotspot and dongles aren't connecting to it

and someone suggested from tp link that it could be because of dfs which I'm not really sure how it works but it's something to do with me living close to an army base and 5g interfering with radar or something?

I'm not sure

but my google chrome cast won't connect to my iphone 5g hotspot either and I'm starting to think that it's the same reason what do you think about this also thank you very much again for your help
