Elaine, can you send me the beta software also? I'm Mac El Capitan 10.11.6, Netgear DGND3700v2. I just filled out ticket no: 28182900
Thank you

Amazing, isn't it? This update downloads as a .rar file, which isn't supported natively by Mac OS. I had to separately find an extractor to be able to open it. Netgear's support for Mac is beyond lamentable.
I was in discussions with support for weeks (including international phone calls at my expense) trying to get the beta. It was not on offer unless I bought a support package.
After months and months of user complaints it's finally been made available generally. But in my case it's too late now, I've given away my Netgear router and will never buy another of this company's products again. I will advise all Mac users to do the same.
So why did I bother downloading the update? Because even the uninstaller would not work in Sierra.
I've now finally been able to remove all traces of Netgear from my Macbook. Good riddance.
