Please give a fix soon..

I have the same problem. Now to wait (forever?) for an update?

I am having the same difficulty, and suspect that everyone ungrading to High Sierra will find that the Netgear USB Control Center is dead in the water. Is it perhaps not a 64 bit application?

Hope that the Netgear folks understand that this is a general problem for many thousands of users, and will try to upgrade it for us.

Maybe the Netgear USB Control Center is not needed in High Sierra!!

Since posting here a couple of days ago to say that I, too, was unable to use the USB Control Center in High Sierra, I deleted it (using the uninstall program included with it) and rebooted. Then, just for the hey of it, I checked to see if I could connect my printer without it. Son of a gun, my printer was now listed as a Bonjour option for installation! I installed it, and it is working fine!

yes, same issue here

Netgear - please dont take another 2 years to update the app!

Does anybody know how to bring it to Netgear's attention since I do not know how aggressively they monitor user forums, especially for Mac OS issues? I just thought the more times it is raised may provide some impetus to to do something. I do not see any means to do this besides through support. My support services expired and it does not seem worth buying extended support since they explicitly say they provide support for Windows only.

BTW: I only bought the Netgear R6400 since one review stated it was compatible with Apple TimeMachine external drive formats. Of course I could never get that to work like advertised so have an external drive now attached directly to my Macbook Pro for TimeMachine to work. I never imagined the USB printer support would also be an issue. I am on the verge of chucking the Netgear equipment and starting over. I got rid of Apple Time Capsule because the wifi was so weak.

I can not believe it: Netgear, don't you have anything to say after a week? I

Two years!! I see...

Netgear, I bought your router because macOS was supported, but now I see I was wrong.

Have you considered releasing the USB Control Center code as open source? I am sure that it will not take two years to release an update to the most lazy OS community.

has anyone contacted netgear about this?
