Connection Manager on Mac OSX - El Capitan ?

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a broadband dongle. 

 

Recently upgraded my operating system to Mac OS EL Capitan (OSX 10.11.6).  Dongle connectivity stopped.

Downloaded a copy of MOBILE CONNECT - which has Connection Manager  and looks as though it is intended for Huwaei type dongles. 

 

Followng installtion, it asked me to reboot - which basically hung the Mac during start-up.  Don't load this if you are running El Capitan. 

 

The various .kext s that Mobile Connect installs are incomppatible with El Capitan - and prevent the OS from loading.  Took a long time to debug..............and unravel. 

 

Any chance of a new version - compatible with El Capitan and Sierra ?

You are not talking to o2 here.

The community is customer to customer help.

If you want to report this to o2 you need to call customer service http://www.o2.co.uk/contactus

but I will tag @Chris_K and @Martin-O2 who may also be able to pass it on for you.

Thanks MI5.

 

I was just wanting to warn others. Although my phone is with O2, the dongle isn't !

 

Now gotta hunt down another alternative - not sure why ZTE  doesn't put something out there.
