    I have UDOO Neo Full, and I would like to use an external WiFi antenna with the on-board WiFi module. There are surface mount pads next to the WiFi module labeled "Ext Ant", and there is an image of a uFL coax style connection (two concentric circles) there as well. This looks like it was supposed to have a uFL component for this very reason, but it is not included. The Neo full info page (http://shop.udoo.org/usa/home/udoo-neo-full.html) official images also show this component is missing.

    Does this board actually support an external antenna? I can probably harvest a uFL component off of some GPS boards I have and solder it on myself, but I'm worried that this component was left off for a good reason, like it was a feature that was attempted but didn't work.

    I searched all over the web and the forum but turned up nothing.

    Can anyone confirm?
