Fix ESP32-CAM's terrible Wi-Fi by adding a proper antenna to it. RSSI was between -95 and -85dBm with the PCB antenna and are now around -69 with the ½-wave dipole salvaged from an old Wi-Fi router.

You'll need:

  • 1x u.FL/IPX - SMA pigtail (Amazon)
  • 1x 2.4GHz antenna - you can buy these, but I pulled one off an old wifi router
  • 1x M3x20-ish screw if you are mounting your ESP32-CAM as shown in this post's pictures
  • Drill bit to create a hole for the u.FL/IPX connector to go through. 

Install process:

  1. Modify ESP32 to use the u.FL/IPX connector. This requires a soldering iron, but no skill to speak of - you just need to bridge two existing adjacent solder pads.
  2. Install the SMA bulkhead connector to the mounting bracket.
  3. Remove two M3 screws that affix the acrylic/PC panels of your EnXLosure.
  4. Add the mounting bracket and re-install screws
  5. Drill a hole for IPX through the frame of the Enxlosure. See pictures for reference.
  6. Pass IPX connector through and attach to ESP32

Filament type shouldn't matter, but I printed mine in Polymaker PETG.
