How do I install drivers on macOS (Sierra) for AC340U?
New driver came out today! And for the macOS Sierra (we don't call it Mac OSX anymore).
http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/26983/(Opens%20in%20new%20window)~/aircard-340u-(at%26t-beam)-downloads-and-documentation?cid=wmt_netgear_organic
Since I've upgrade (and later fresh-installed) macOS on my Macbook Pro, the AT&T NetBeam/NetGear AirCard 340U has been rendered disabled. Recognized by the macOS, yes, at USB-level. But the drivers refuse to interact with it.
With this NEW driver, I downloaded it. I'm puzzled. It is a zip file. With a 'Contents' folder. And a 'Resources' folder inside that.
What is the installation procedure for incorporating this latest and greatest driver into macOS?
I am typing this using the latest Drivers_10.9.pkg found inside the downloaded ZIP file in macOS Sierra (aka Mac OSX 10.12).
Double click it that Drivers_10.9.pkg. Once installed and rebooted, AirCard Watcher app should also start after re-login.
From there, I clicked 'connect' inside the AirCard Watcher app. Wow... this is so sweet.
Life is good.

Life is good.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!!!
