A7000 won’t install on Mac OS Big Sur
I recently purchased the Nighthawk A7000 and I can’t get it to install on MacOS Big Sur v11.1. This is extremely frustrating for such an expensive and premium product.
After many hours on the phone with Netgear support I also was told 3 quarter 2021 for a fix maybe, or roll back to Catalina.
I ended up using a eithernet wi-fi bridge (TP Link TL-902AC) in client mode but I don't get the same speed as the A7000. If you are running a Orbi system a RBS750 works but it is a pricy way to go.
I don't believe any USB wi-fi adapter will work with Big Sur. There is a workaround but I didn't want to go to all this trouble so I returned mine.
This is the workaround: https://github.com/chris1111/Wireless-USB-Big-Sur-Adapter
Q3? Yikes. I guess the good news out of this thread is that I don't need to waste my time trying other brands of adapters.
