Soldering internal Wifi/Bluetooth antenna - petet0n76 - 06-18-2020
Hello,
just did a complete disassemble of my Pinebook Pro. When I tried to disconnect the internal wireless antenna from the CPU Board the socket came off from the board, damage caused. Would like to repair without replacing the CPU Board, are there two potential solder joints (shield/signal) where the antenna can be soldered to ? If it cannot be fixed...USB Wireless dongle seems to be the remaining option.
Any hint appreciared, Peter

Sorry to knows about antenna socket comes off. You can directly solder to the PCB soldering point but needs good study hand and soldering skill.
