On my laptop bought in late 2016 (v6/7th gen cpu/Sunrise Point-LP chipset in lspci), I replaced the wifi/bluetooth card with an Intel AX200. I bought mine on Amazon. There are branded/boxed intel cards for about $27US. This card is at least one generation newer than the cards you are looking at. My card was from one of the random resellers that sell these cards but had decent reviews.
The card was a massive improvement in staying connected and working over the original one that came in the laptop. My original card was not an intel card.
There is an Intel alternative that was an option that came with my laptop (Intel Wireless 7260). I have the Broadcom alternative. I just don't know how to find out what card I could get that is compatible with my laptop. The aforementioned Intel card, I guess, would not be a newer generation than the one I already have; since it was offered originally with this pc. thanks very much for this info.
