    I purchased a 40 watt weller solder iron, some 60/40 solder, desoldering braid and liquid rosin flux.  I practiced soldering and desoldering on a bad computer motherboard.  I then soldered a ethernet wire to bridge the gaps but had difficulty with the pin hole point of the trace and could not get the wire to hold.  The silver plate point was soldered but when desoldering it came off I was trying to put a new wire in that was better tinned.  I figured the wire must of been to big.  Now I have two damaged points.  Could I back track further and solder from point near R3G4 the top of the board to another point past the silver plate point of "Trace A" to point near C7P6.  I found a thinner wire about half the size I was using by splicing a broken xbox original controller cable.

    i find that if you use the wire from usb bevice its better than ethernet .. much smaller
