Nighthawk MR2100 M2 External Antenna Support

Is it true that the MR2100 M2 will not support bands above 2200Mhz using the external antenna TS2 ports or was that only true for an earlier model of the Nighthawk?

Hello, one person made GET_RF_PATH_script to my MR2100-TLAUS and the bands and the antennas turned out like this:

B1 (53) Ant 0,2,3,4

B2 (9) Ant 0,2

B3 (53) Ant 0,2,3,4

B5 (9) Ant 0,2

B7 (47) Ant 1,2,3,4

B8 (9) Ant 0,2

B28 (9) Ant 0,2

So the B7 2600MHz uses one different antenna than the bands below 2200MHz.

I wanted to experiment with sending a signal to the external and internal antenna connectors to find out which one is the B7 main one, but my router died and there are no firmware.
