Inspiron 3880 desktop wifi module upgrade help
Inspiron 3880
My dell desktop inspiron 3880 comes with a m2 wifi card that supports only upto 802.11ac network type. Recently I bought a wifi router that has wifi-6 support or 802.11ax support. I want to upgrade the wifi module from ac support to ax support. I found the following the wifi modules with ax support on amazon. I am glad to buy from dell if they are selling. My searches showed they are not selling any wifi module for this PC model. Please suggest if these are compatible with my model of desktop pc. If possible please let me know how to figure out which one is compatible. I read the service manual for this but it only mentions the size and m.2 model. But these on amazon says it is compatible with AX200NGW and I couldn't find any mention of NGW in manual. The links to description of ones I am considering are as follows :
Your valuable inputs and suggestions on this are highly welcome.
PS : I am not a native English speaker, hence please pardon me if my wordings aren't the best. I hope I have conveyed the message.
Thanks you,
with regards,
ashwin

I installed https://amzn.in/d/dULm3wH this wireless module in my PC and it works like a charm.
I can see the above in my windows 11 PC settings under network and internet >> wifi. I am grateful to all the suggestions and help. Especially the video hosted in dell website on how to remove and install the wifi hardware module. Thanks all.

In regards to the 7060 micro, this AX210NGW works perfectly fine.

@redxps630 Would any of the cards that @neo_ak linked work? I'd think they all would, but wanted to check with you. I couldn't even find if MB was a e keyed.
