I'm new here, and I don't know how this goes; if I had posted correctly this on the forum, if this it's posted already (I had searched it but I don't find the answer to my question) or if it's something else that I'm doing wrong; please forgive me.

After explaining that I'm new here, my question:

How I could connect an antenna to the ESP8266 PHAT for adding more range to the ESP8266 module?

PD: I add a link to the ESP8266 PHAT product: https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/esp8266-phat

Thanks for all

If-you-really-want-to answer: remove the ESP-12 from the board, replace it with an ESP-07 and connect an external antenna (don't forget to remove the 0 Ohm resistor to the on board ceramic antenna).


Read this older thread for more information.

Assumption is the mother of all f*ckups. At least: that's what I'm assuming.
