    I have this laptop with only a B/G network card. Im looking into buying a N+ card i find them but they have 3 connections to power it. This laptop only has 2 one of the cables is black and other is white. Does anyone know where i cant get a N+ with only 2 connections to it.

    Why do you need a N+ wireless network card in the first place?

    With the connection speed in your sig you would be better off just connecting using a network cable. You would be extremely lucky to get anywhere near the 100mbit over Wi-Fi.

    For the connection, are you talking about the cables that connect to the wireless card? It should work with 2 cables but the signal should be ok.

    It should work with 2 and the signal would be slightly decreased without the 3rd connection.
    If you want another connection you can use something like this.

    You will probably need to dissemble the screen, and depending on how your computer is designed you may have to remove some parts.
