Connecting 2 Wilson Yagi antennas to a Nighthawk M6 mobile router

First of all thank you for allowing me to join this group.

i have a question about hooking up 2 Wilson antennas to a Nighthawk M6 Pro. I have a Channel Plus Open House 2532 Diplexer 2 Way Signal Splitter Combiner 1 GHz to combine them. For the M6 i have a Y adapter to combine the 2 antennas to connect to the splitter. Will this combination work or do i need to run a separate line from each antenna to connect each side of the M6. i read that you shouldn't use a y adapter on the nighthawk but to use 2 separate connectors and then connect them together with a T adapter which doesn't make sense but not too tech savvy ? I do appreciate your time with this question.
Thank you, Bobby

While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section.

You might like to search there for messages related to your question.

I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

Check for various troubleshooting tips.

You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
