MAC OS X Sierra (10.12)
Is anyone getting an AC340U (AT&T Beam) working on OS X 10.12 (Sierra)? The AT&T Connection Software isn't saying the modem is connected. Nothing is appearing in System Preferences/Network Settings...

Here is what I did for my Sierra OS and it works beautifully:
You must remember to not have the device plugged into the Mac while installing the Aircard Watcher (do this first) after finished, plug it in, it will say no device detected, then you go to the contents folder referenced in the instructions, install that file and leave the device plugged in while it restarts. Once it's restarted open Aircard Watcher and the device will be recognized, but you must be patient it takes a little bit.

The link you posted is to this article. Please reply with correct link as nothing in any of the recently "solved" articles are actually working.

You should download and install Aircard Watcher for Mac OS from here: http://kb.netgear.com/27655/AC340U-Telus-Downloads-and-Documentation?cid=wmt_netgear_organic and ready to install. With the device unplugged, install the Aircard Watcher Software. It may or may not ask you to restart.
Download the Sierra file from http://kb.netgear.com/26983/AirCard-340U-AT-T-Beam-Downloads-and-Documentation?cid=wmt_netgear_organic
Plug the device into the Mac, open the downloaded Sierra file and open the folder and install the file labeled Drivers_10.9.pkg. The Mac will direct you to restart, once it restarts, open the Aircard Watcher app and give it a bit then the device will be recognized and you'll be good to go.
Let me know how this works for you.
