      Unfortuneatly I left the USB plug connect to mt DUEt2 wifi. When I moved the gantrey the lead got caught and pulled USB socket almost off the to an angle of 90 degrees. Ive pushed it flat again but it no longer connects. Is there any way I can get this repaired ?

        @colin-kent depending on how good you with a soldering iron and how bad the traces/pads for the usb is damaged.

          The biggest problem with repairing such a thing is without the pads to anchor the port it will be quite weak.

          Clean up the port and board, remove solder mask from traces, solder wires from port to traces, epoxy port in place. Fiddly work, but absolutely doable.
