Any schematics? For both the antenna  and you dongle/built in. Because Vcc ++/-- and Data ++/-- could mean anything,

I have absolutely no idea since there aren't any schematics for your build or the wifi adapter your trying to do this with,


If you reverse polarity's on things you have a sever chance of bricking things.

They all have circuits, surface's mount or through-hole.... And no, you will need a WiFi radio to attach an antenna too.


Judging from what you've posted, I don't think you are at the right skill level to take this on.
