Thanks for the instructions. Quick and easy, with NO stupid music playing in background.

We have Chamberlain openers with MyQ. One day we went on a short drive and I forgot to turn off the stove. I called my neighbor to go check. I told him I’ll open the garage door for him. He said wait your not at home? No we were 20 miles away. He was blown away. And yea the stove was on 👍

TRUST ME THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO ON THE MYQ. Which is a great System.

I have one like this but I have a question. When it searches for an opener to connect it gives me a list of about 5. How do I know which one is mine. Tia

What is the model number of your wall buttons? Why do they have a QR Code?

Great video - I am getting one of these installed here this week. Quick question, Is there a way to turn off / disable that obnoxious safety beeping. That was just too much and its just my wife & I so no need for all that jazz.

is there a keypad outside of the garage as well? if i need to open it and i don't have my phone on me or keys on me. my old opener had a keypad to punch code in outside the door

I needed to see how you connected the second garage door as I'm having problems to connect the second garage door.

Does not work with Android. Requires subscription. I'm tired of everyone wanting a monthly fee of some sort. Robbery.

I have the opener on my phone. Now, I would like to add it to my car. 2020 Camryn XLE. How is this achieved?

Have you tried it with the MyQ light switches to control other garage lights? It's handy to have lights other than the small garage door opener light coming on.

That is the odd part that I don't have any integration with the Garage Opener Lights. I'm looking at making the Garage lights smart with other triggers.

They no longer sell the Chamberlain light switches and removed the integration management from the app. I had my lights on a schedule, but when I deleted the schedule, it all disappeared, and I'm unable to re-add.

You can connect it through a third party called Simple Commands in the Alexa skills to have it work with Alexa, then I say Alexas ask simple commands to open/close Garage door comes in very handy with my Echo Auto

I have this but I get off line error a lot. I sometimes have to turn off the von on my phone but other times it works just fine with vpn. I was thinking of creating an NFC tag to make it quicker. Any chance you can make a video showing that if it's possible? Thanks Bret With 1 T

That's a great idea. I need to find a good app for all that.

I got the camera and really wish I hadn't wasted the money. I have the motion sensitivity set to the lowest, and still I get notifications of movement when the camera switches from daylight to night vision (there is a window in the garage). And it is not smart enough to realize the only thing changing sometimes is that the garage light turned off (like after 2 min). And the subscription to store any motion-triggered events, so now I only have live-feed anyways. Eufy (with my doorbell) has the better system for storing those locally.

Sorry to hear of the troubles. They do have some funny subscription options and that is weird to hear it is that way for events.

I was really excited to get the wifi enable garage door opener when I first saw it. When my old door opener died I decided to spend the extra money for the MyQ enabled door opener. It worked great for a few days, then we had a power outage and it failed to reconnect to the wifi. In order to reset it you have to press some buttons on the overhead unit. This meant that I had to pull the release cord on the door and roll it up manually. Since I use my garage to store my classic car I had to install the battery in order to move the car out of the way. After I did this a few times I realized that because my garage is a metal building the connection to the wifi is too weak to connect when the door is closed. I put in a Netgear range extender but that only works half the time. The other frustration I have is I can't have a second door closer button at the front of the garage. It used to be super convenient to step out past the sensors and reach in and hit that second button to close the door. Now I have to use the keypad. It has been about 2 years since the last time I reset the MyQ. If I could find a more rock solid wifi extender to work in my detached metal building I might start using it again.

I'm glad it has sort of been working. Running a wired network access point out there would certainly help those issues but that does take some work.

Hm, unlike some other commenters, mine I installed works great! Which I was surprised by since our home was built in 2001.

I was able to open my garage door with Android Auto via the $20 no name amazon wifi garage opener. So now I dont have to reach for my phone to open the garage I just push a button on my stereo. Can Chamberlin do that?....without paying an extra subscription?

Tailwind is another offering for those interested. We're incredibly happy with ours and integrates perfectly into GH.

Something isn’t right, i have a myq liftmaster but no serial number that is 10 digits. I cannot find the signal in the app, the ceiling mounted system doesn’t beep and turn blue when the learn button is pressed 3 times, and the wall remote doesn’t trigger the system to beep when the remote learn button is pressed. I think myq doesn’t mean you can use an app, there must be something else needed. Anyone help? It clearly says myq on my ceiling mounted system

The beeping is annoying. It would suck for people like my cousin who bed is directly at above the garage and my uncle goes to work at 5 am. They dont have this system but I could see him LOVING this at 5 am when he is sleeping lol.

Yeah, it would be nice if there was a day and night volume control. My kids rooms are connected to the garage so it would certainly wake them up.

Why would you want to turn on the opener light from your phone you're not going to be home when you use your smartphone turning on the opener lights only makes sense if you're in your garage

@TechWithBrett

I guess I mainly would want that so it could be integrated into my other smart home platforms. So I open the house door to the garage (with a sensor) and it could automatically turn on the light if I am not openin the garage.

Once you add the unit to your account, you can the invite the second account by sharing the garage with them in the MyQ app.

I've tried hub version with two separate units. Neither would maintain a connection with a mesh wifi router located within 20 feet.
