NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
I just installed my new BR500 and added a new vpn user. Unfortunately I cannot get the InsightVPNClient to run on my macbook pro running macos 10.14.5. It just crashes everytime I open the app. How can I fix this?

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Hello,
I am using OSX 10.14.2 with the latest Insight VPN client and I can connect with any issues. What version of the VPN client are you currently using? Do you have any other VPN clients installed?

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
So I just did a clean reinstallation of macOS mojave an tried the Insight VPN client app again. The Insight VPN client app still immediately crashes when opening it. macOS gives me the following report:
I do not have any issues with any other app I'm using on my mac. This is really frustrating. I'm seriously considering the return of the BR500 router, since it is definitely not working for me.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Hello,
What version of the Insight VPN client are you using? Are you able to try the previous version 1.0.0.15 to see if this version works?

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Hello MrJoshW,
thank you for your relpy. I've tried both versions on 2 macbooks pro 15 late 2016 - unfortunately both versions immediately crash after opening the app. Today I've tried it again with my iMac 27 late 2015 and the app doesn't crash, so I think the problem must be with the specific macbook pro model that me and my colleages use - probabely a graphic card issue, since I can see the window of the app opening up for a millisecond before the app eventually crashes. The plan was to connect our 3 offices with 3 BR500-routers and have additional vpn access on the go (i. e. on our macbooks). Unfortunately it seems that this is off the table now, since I cannnot get it to work with at least one of our macbooks for we all use the same model (macbook pro 15 late 2016) . I fear I'll have to look for a different vpn router that works with macOS built in vpn options.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
I am having the same issue of it crashing on startup. I also have MBP 2016 with Mojave 10.14
My Error is also the same as posters..
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000008
Exception Note: EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY
Works fine on Windows 10 machines, have not tested on any other OSX machines. Bought two of these BR500 specifically so I could use VPN to remote desktop on all the PC workstations I manage. Completely useless without working on my MBP

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
I figured that the insight vpn app is not crashing when my my macbook is connected to an external monitor and the internal display is turned off. I've already gave this information to the netgear support but unfortunately so far there still is no bugfix in sight - so the insight vpn client ist useless to me. 😞

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Hello,
You are correct, engineering believes the issue is due to the resolution being used on some of the MAC models. Currently they are working on a possible fix and I am working with them to determine a possible release date to address this issue.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Hi,
I have exactly the same issue on my Mac Book Pro. Then it runs fine on my iMac 27".
I have OS 10.14.6 and the Insight App downloaded today.
Netgear said it was Apple and Apple said wipe computer.
Ahhh a clean install of Mac OS and only other App loaded was InsightVPNClient and it crashes.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
I planned to purchase more, but I’m extremely disappointed that it doesn’t work on any of our Mac’s, especially after all these months. I guess I will have to look at other products, if this issue doesn’t get fixed soon.

Unfortunately I cannot install the updated app. The download seems to be corrupted/damaged. It has only 524 kb. The old download pkg had 5 mb.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
The latest release does not include the issue of the client crashing on MacOS versions/builds. Due to the nature of the issue we are trying to pin point further on the issue and how it is being caused. Engineering is working on a test debug build for testing in the coming weeks that will have available to public testing. Once I have the build from engineering build for public testing I can send the build to available canidates.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Any updates on this? We just purchased the BR500 so all our engineers could connect from there Macbook Pros to the VPN and the client crashes on all of their machines.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
We are awaiting for the debug build but one work around that has been verified by engineering is to use an external display on the Mac as this will bypass the primary display of the unit.

Re: NETGEAR Insight VPN macOS 10.14.5
Yes, if I use only the external monitor, it launches. Unfortunately, the use case for our team is to connect to the VPN when they are traveling, most likely without an external monitor. 🙂
