All I know is: keep a big chunk of space unpopulated under the wifi antenna (no ground plane, no traces) if you want good network performance
Thanks for the tip! I was told several times when I designed the first generation of this project to leave more space. I found a Kicad library that has these KEEP OUT zones marked but I need to either use a different computer or newer version of Kicad.
In your drill file, you could put a hole in the board under the antenna. No board means no traces!
That's a slick idea, I may just edit the footprint I have, after making a footprint from scratch for my relay it's not that difficult
