Hi,

As far as I know, 2100F error is Internet related issue, try to install macOS via wired connection or if your neighborhood retail Apple Store is open, make Genius Bar reservation , they will install macOS on your MacBook Air for free.

Or if you can find opened Apple Authorized Service Provider near you, take your MacBook Air to them to install macOS on it for free.
