If you have a choice between le or hme, I would go with hme. It is a newer interface. It can support 100MB as well as 10MB; also half duplex or full duplex. The old le card is only 10MB half duplex.

However, you did say "must". Understand that you're not constrained to using the hme card. You do have a choice here. So the real answer to which you "must" use is, I guess, neither.
