The IOGEAR GSR202 is a TAA compliant USB Common Access Card Reader for military, government and even private sector workers who need everyday access to secure systems. Common Access Card (CAC) or Smart Card readers are used as a communications medium between the Smart Card and a host (e.g. I have verified that I can sign on a 10.11.5 mac but when the OS is updated to 10.11.6 with the same Acrobat installation signing fails. The certificates show as valid and are used for login so I know they are valid. I would like to install PKCS#11 Tokend to my Mac OS X El Capitan (10.11.2) so I can access PKCS#11 enabled devices from Safari. I downloaded and install Smart Card Services for El Capitan from htt. Stack Overflow.
Hi Marc,
To assist you better I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:
- The purpose of this guide is to provide a comprehensive installation guide to Navy Reserve personnel for installing CAC devices on personal computing equipment. Obtaining required files. Pull your CAC out of the CAC reader and re-insert your CAC into the reader.
- The card reader should come with installation instructions, support information, and necessary drivers. Q: Now that the Air Force Portal is PKI/CAC restricted, where can I get a copy of the CAC.
- Once you have your CAC reader, plug it into your Mac and ensure your computer recognizes it. If you have one of the CAC readers we suggested above, then you should be good to go. If you are testing a different version, then verify that your Mac accepts your CAC reader by following these steps.
1)What is the make and model of the CAC Reader?
2)What happens when you try to connect the CAC Reader device?
3)Do you get any error message / code?
Follow the troubleshooting steps and check;
Try installing the latest Windows 8 drivers for CAC reader and check.
I would suggest you to update the CAC Reader drivers from the Manufacturer’s website and check.
If the CAC Reader drivers are not compatible with Windows 8 Operating System, I would suggest you to try installing it in compatibility mode and check.
In case not able to update the drive I would suggest you to manually download and install the drivers from the Manufacturer’s website and check.
Follow the steps to install it in compatibility mode;
a)Press the ‘Windows key + W’ key on the keyboard.
b)Type compatibility in the search box and then press Enter.
c)Click “Run programs made for previous versions of Windows” option from the list appeared in the left side.
d)Select the drivers or games and install.
Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows
Most programs created for earlier versions of Windows also work in this version of Windows, but some older programs might run poorly or not at all. If a program written for an earlier version of Windows doesn't work correctly, you can try changing the compatibility settings for the program, either by using the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter or manually choosing compatibility settings.
What is program compatibility?

I'm trying to get started on my correspondence courses, before I hit E4, and I just bought a CAC reader today at the PX. I know you can't just plug and go and that there are certain certificates you must install before being able to use your CAC on your personal computer. Does anyone have knowledge on how to do this? Thanks!

Even if you bought one at the PX, check with supply. Most units have a budget to buy a whole bunch of them for all the Soldiers. Might as well have an extra.

Your ISP may not like you using what's really a CAC secured VPN. The protocols make it a data hog and if you're paying for low speed, it will take a long time to establish the tunnel and the connection can get dropped frequently. If you have a home account and telework, at some point the ISP may notice the data consumption and time of day and conclude you have to get a business account. So read up on the limits of your current plan and check with the IT shop on consumption figures. When I was working for the Navy, we had a lot of teleworkers. Those who were constantly interactive with NMCI stuff eventually got dinged for the commercial account. Most figured out how to fly under the radar.

SSgtRyan SylvesterNot to mention that some ISPs *cough*Comhacks*cough* tend to hate off-norm traffic that can't be expressly monitored and may issue a terms of service 'warning' (read: 'Cease and desist or we shall sever your ties to the intarwebz and report you to FBI for you are a pirate reasons.')
