I just received my duet wifi and there is a copper wire soldered on the end of the wifi module going to the SD card slot. Is that supposed to be there?

Probably not, can you show us a picture?

Pics, or it didn't happen!

I asked on Reddit as well and I got answers that it's just the ground for the wifi module. False alarm

Yes, it's meant to be there on that Duet PCB revision.
