Hi @skys3012 welcome to this free user to user Alienware laptop discussion forum. This is not Dell Support.

Intel® Killer™ Wi-Fi 6E AX1675 System Interface Type is Wi-Fi(PCIe), BT(USB) and OK for Alienware m17 R5 upgrade. Remember to install new driver pack before installing this card, or with ethernet connection to internet, windows boot into operating system should automatically find and install new Wi-Fi driver.
