For those who know, the driver in question is downloaded from NetGear and is called AirWatch v2.5.0.
In my case, I am using AT&T mobile broadband provider, and use the following driver from: https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tutorial.html#!/stepbystep/id/stepbystep_KB421838?make=ATT&model=BeamAC340U

AT&T All Access isn't finding the modem either under Sierra 10.12 for me. That is why I tried the Netgear driver\software.
I am just about out of options and I am thinking about reinstalling back to El Capitan so I can use the AirCard once again.
I am super furstrated with this AirCard not working on my Mac.

Yep, that is the route that I am going to take now.... (some how, given that I've fresh installed a macOS).

I am screwed. I did not make a TimeMachine backup of my older El Capitan... :-/
There is no way for me to go back to El Capitan, because I didn't make a TimeMachine backup (as Apple suggested). - egbertsOct 15, 2016Guide

IT WORKS!
Use the 'Drivers_10.9.pkg' file. - archspanglerOct 15, 2016Star
Same here! The installation of the new drivers for Sierra was succesful and now my AirCard works once again.
Thanks to whomever was responsible for the new driver!!!
