    Buying a new Wifi Antenna

    Hey! I have a ASUS Z170I PRO GAMING motherboard with two Wifi antenna fittings in the back. And the antenna that came with the board has two fittings as well. Id like to buy a better antenna but all I can find is the single connection antennas on the web. Now, can I use just one of the antennas connections and not worry about the other one? Or do I have to use one that uses both fittings? -Thanks!

    Here is a picture...
