2 WIFI issues after screen replacement
I dropped my phone a few weeks ago and it shattered the screen, lost functionality of the home button but it still operated fine up until the screen was replaced. I did it myself to save on costs. Removal went pretty smooth, i was able to get the old screen out and the replacement came with the parts already installed so i didn’t have to bother with swapping over the existing pieces. I did lose the ability to use the touch id but i can live with that. I decided to re install the os and start fresh after the repair work. Once i got to the part where i needed to connect it to my WIFI i noticed it could not locate the signal from my room.. But if i stood near the router it worked flawlessly.
I had no issues with the wifi antenna before i replaced the screen but now it seems as if the antenna has become unplugged or has been damaged.
Is dit een goede vraag?

I started taking the phone apart today as the new parts should be arriving tomorrow. While taking the phone apart i noticed that the cable connecting the logic board to the 5GHz antenna was severed right after the logic board connection. I recon i probably broke the cable while i was removing the front panel assembly cable bracket for the screen repair. This would explain why the wifi still worked, but not at a reasonable distance away from the router.
