https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/support/articles/000026155/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking.html and the CNVi.
Bottom line, to use a CNVi-based Wireless card, you need a motherboard and processor that support CNVi. As the articles indicate, support was rolled out in the Gemini Lake and Coffee Lake processors.
