Hello,
Does anyone have any experience with the range of the “Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32C6-2.4 GHz WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.3” WIFI with an external antenna?

No, but be aware that the Chinese manufacturers like to set up their modules for maximum power output. It can be very easy to exceed the legally allowable maximum radiated power in your country simply by attaching an external antenna (or even, in some cases, by simply using the default settings using an on-board antenna). The Chinese don't care as long as they can advertise some legally impossible range. :)

Hi Mick

That would be great. My experience so far has been the opposite. They promised a 100-meter range, but it cut out after 30 meters. I have a large property, so I'm hoping for “some legally impossible range.”
