At the very least, you need to replace the WiFi card. You'll probably also need to replace the antennas (often in the top of the screen; quite hard to do).
Or you can get a USB one.
Why do you need 5GHz support?

802.11n can support both the 2.4 GHz range of b and g and the 5 GHz range used by 802.11a. Your wireless card needs to be dual-band for that, though.
802.11a is a bit rare to find as an active network. The 5 GHz range may be less crowded, but at the same time, the radio waves don't penetrate walls and other objects as easily.
