Your motherboard has built-in Wi-Fi and an antenna, but the one is damaged. You've added an ASUS PCE-AC68 adapter that supports PCI-E Wi-Fi. The software is set up for the main board's Wi-Fi, not the adapter. To switch to the adapter's Wi-Fi, you'll need to configure your PC settings or use a driver update to enable the adapter's network.

Turn off the default settings in Device Manager or Network Connections, especially on Windows systems.

I notice the item you wish for, but not the one you wish to turn off.

Network & Internet Settings > Adjust Adapter Options > Click the motherboard adapter and choose 'Disable'. From the image, it seems the drivers for 'Other devices' are absent and require fixing. Have you already removed the drivers?

I didn't detach the drivers. The system displays the correct device, but removing the motherboard's Wi-Fi antenna causes the connection to disappear.

The antenna might still receive some signal even if it's damaged. You can likely install new antennas onto it.
