    External Antenna for Edimax BR-6258n

    I'd like to add a RP-SMA socket onto this nano-router, but I'm having trouble identifying any antenna contacts. My best guess is that it's the pad next to the four serial contacts, but I'm not sure nor do I really know how to check (vmm and then touch a wire to see signal change?).



    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

        All,
        Im with KC8ADU on this.
        I don't see any RF goodies.
        Can you supply a photo of the bottom of the board?

        Very often an antenna is 'etched' into the circuit board and can't be modified by normal humans.

        Microwave projects are not the best thing for someone new at this.

          Fixed the offsite image issue. In the future, please attach your images first, and if you want your image inline, use the attachment's address. It speeds up page loading and ensures the image is never a broken link.
