An alternative is using a TP-Link WiFi USB, where you only have to install the following drivers: 

sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade
sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential git

mkdir ~/dev/tools/ -p

cd ~/dev/tools/
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw88

cd rtw88
make
sudo make install
sudo make install_fw
