a7000 and Mac OS Mojave

Has there been any timeline on a new driver to support Mojave and Catalina - 1.0.0.9 doesn not work.

I saw in another pot that it was slated for 1Q 2020 - but I don't see anything  am I missing it? Is there a workaround?

 

Thx

    Hi BoomerLenny, 

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    This has been brought up already to engineers. We will provide update once new information will be available.

      Blanca -

       

      Thanks for your reply.

      This has been sitting with the "engineers" for over a year - if you're not going to do anything about it, just tell us and we'll move on - i'm about ready to invest in another system, but can hold off for a bit - moving to mesh as soon as this is resolved -

        I have a workaround.

         

        I was trying to update my old edimax ac1200 mini adapter when I accidentally installed it's driver when the A7000 was plugged in.

         

        It worked, I'm using the A7000 on Mojave right now.

         

        go to this page:

        https://www.edimax.com/edimax/download/download/data/edimax/global/download/

        box 1 home

        box 2 wireless adapters

        box 3 EW-7822UAC

        box 4 Drivers

        Get driver 1.0.3.6, ostensibly for Catalina (if this works for Catalina, let us all know), install, restart

        I had to uninstall my old drivers first, so after I unzipped the file, I ran the uninstall first, just to be sure, restarted, then ran the install with the A7000 plugged in, and now the A7000 is working.
