Hello i need some help with this:

I have an Asus 1000ha Netbook, and i been upgrading some parts.

Now its the turn of the wifi card (Atheros AR5007eg) because i always have problems with wireless phones that are in my house and other things.

I been reading and i have these 2 options:

Atheros ar5008 (DONT KNOW IF I NEED TO INSTALL A 3RD ANTENNA, MY NETBOOK HAS ONLY 2 CABLES, OR IF I CAN IGNORE THAT 3RD ANTENNA AND LEAVE IT UNCONNECTED)

Intel Link 5100 (HAS ONLY 2 CABLES BUT DONT KNOW IF Draft-N IS AS GOOD AS THE "N" CARDS)

 

If there is any other option let me know please.

Thanks in advance.

There shouldn't be any harm in trying to install that card without attaching the third antenna. If anything, you'll experience shorter wifi range.
