RT-AC66U - how to limit it to use only 1 antenna? (SISO only)

Theone23

New Around Here
Hi,
i'm new here :)
i have an ASUS RT-AC66U router and i would like (for research purposes) to limit it's capability to be able to receive only SISO rates on VHT, i.e, limit it to receive with only 1 antenna out of the 3, don't care with which one.

of course i can detach 2 out of the 3 antennas, but he's SW will still 'thinks' it has all 3, im talknig about a SW solution not HW one.

i know i can limit it's Tx capability to transmit with only one antenna using wl commands - 'wl -i eth2 rateset -v 3ff', but that doesn't affect it Rx - he still revieve with all 3.

is there a custom FW that can do it, or is there some telnet or wl command that can do it?

thanks!
