A switch wifi extension mod?

Hey guys and gals, so now that sxos has been updated for 6.2, I am finally able to download warframe (on sysnand) and for the first real time where I've played online for an extended period of time, I've realised just how crap the wifi signal is...like wow is it bad, I know in part it's my router that makes it unbearable as it's no where near this bad at my parents place (though still far from great) but at this point the thing is 4m away and I'm getting 2 out of 3 bars.. that's insane.

So I had the idea of a wifi range mod, now I have done a trinket M0 install so the soldering is no issue, but I'm finding it hard to find any clear photos of the wifi card online, I know it's directly under the EMMC chip and under a shield, but can anyone share with me a high Rez photo of it? To save me opening my switch just for that? Surely somewhere there's a good photo of it,

But basically if I can see an antenna line I can scratch the trace on and solder to or maybe even a coaxial plug that's not being used (like on the 360s wifi adaptor) I'll take the plunge and try a mod out and report results, if it works as expected, I'll write up a guide for others to follow,

What do you guys think? Has anyone else had a similar thought or even tried it? Any roadblocks to report? Etc etc.

Thanks guys!
