Precision m4700 WIFI upgrade

Hi, sorry if this question was allready answerd but I couldnt't find it. I have a dell precision m4700 and I cannot connect to any 5ghz wifi networks. I was told that it's because my network card does not support 5ghz connections so I'm limited  to 2,4 ones.

Is there a way to upgrade it. Hope You can help

    I've got M4700, it has Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 AGN 3x3 HMC WiFi Adapter (as reported by Aida64). This one has 5Ghz capability.
