NETGEAR USB Control Center utility for MAC OS X El Capitan
NETGEAR USB Control Center utility v 2.22 is not compatible with MAC OS X El Capitan, where to download or make NETGEAR USB Control Center utility with the new MAC OS X ?
Hello All,
You may now download the official release of the USB Control Center Utility for MAC OS 10.11 and above from the link below.
Hi,
I had the exact same issue as you all, my printer was showing as offline when trying to use the bonjour method no amount of reconfiguring etc made any difference. Issues occured after El Capitan upgrade on macbook.
I then decided to unplug the printer (canon pixma ip5000) from the USB port it was plugged into and plugged it into the 2nd USB slot on my R7500 and I'm now able to print without problems without the usb controller app.
The reason I did this was because I couldn't even see the printer on the network via a windows 7 PC that that was working previously with the usb controller app.
I recently purchased an IMAC of which came with El Capitan installed so had never connected to the printer but it found the printer immediately without issues.
I was patiently waiting for yonks :smileyfrustrated: for netgear to resolve these issues until I attempted the above.
I doubt i'll even install the usb controller when/if netgear even fix this issue - as things are working for me now without their 'technology'.
Hope this works for others too.
Hi Stan, I'm trying to connect to an R6200 V2 Router and it has two USB slots, the manual says to connect the to the USB2 slot, but it also has a USB3 slot. Just so I'm clear, when you say you plugged it into the 2nd slot, do you mean on the Router itself? and if so how did you 'see' or install the printer on the Mac, because the Control centre simply wont run under El Capitan or did El Capitan just 'recognize' the printer and install?
Meanwhile Netgear stay silent.......
