Thank you! About 50 trips up and down the ladder following their instructions with no success, then this solved the problem in about 30 seconds.

This was great fixed my issue right away.

This man deserves to win an award. I had trouble for 7 months. His video fixed the problem.

Hello and thank you for posting this!!! Lost my internet for several days last month and with your help I was able to reset myQ! You have made this painless for me-a widowed senior who can still climb a ladder. Thanks again!!

I had given up on ever fixing this issue and hadn't used the garage to park my car in 3 months, then one day i stumbled upon this video and I was able to fix the problem in under a minute. Wife is beyond happy. Very grateful to you!! Thank you!

Thank you Amer. I also changed my router. I was able to get one of my LiftMasters to reconnect after about a hour of frustration and language not suitable for little ears, but the other one refused to cooperate. Watched your video and 30 seconds later we were back in business. I thank you and my neighbors thank you.

Perfect! This is way easier than the recommended approach in the manual.

You sir are the life saver. I spent like countless attempts to follow the app instructions but this sealed the deal for me.

Thank you so much! I was stuck too and may have been even longer if I hadn’t watch your video. That was clear and concise. Got my garage WiFi going again! Awesome!

You rock, dude! I wish MyQ would have smart, easy fixes like you. Next major issue is getting them to allow us to open the garage door with voice commands.

This was a huge help, thank you. Our last modem/router combo died almost a year ago and every couple months I kept trying to reconnect our doors. I could tell it had something to do with the units not wanting to connect to the new router. I certainly won’t forget this in the future!

Well after going through the app and customer service numerous times, I found this gem and got it done in 30 seconds. Straight to the point. Thanks man.

Thank you so much! Far better than the manufacturers instructions, which don't seem to cover a router replacement

I also had my router switched out and shared your frustration for many months. Thank you for posting this and putting an end to the mystery.

This just resets to factory settings for new router correct??? The remote controller still works still weather u connected to new router or not?

THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU!!!!! I gave up on this for over a year and now it’s working normally. You made my day!!

All afternoon in addition to the previous 8 days offline after adding a new router, I watched your explanation and after 90 seconds after resetting it brought my new router name and I entered my password. I was finally able to put my ladder away! I can’t thank you enough, Amer!

I just bought a house with 2 Chamberlain MyQ openers. It was driving me crazy since it could never find any Wifi at all. Your video fixed my issue. Thank you.

Perfect help! Been trying to fix this since I built a new Wi-Fi network a few days ago. Both doors fixed 10 minutes after watching! Thanks!!

I’m just one more person who is incredibly grateful that you shared this video with the world! I wanted to cry after several failed attempts! Thank you for saving my sanity!!! You are awesome!

Many many videos only showing how to set up a NEW garage door opener. You’re the only one I found to show how to set up garage door opener that already had been set up by previous party. Thank you!!!

Bless you! I spent at least 2 hours over 2 days going back & forth with the MyQ & LiftMaster instructions. As you said, the instructions they provided were not specific enough. They tell you to hold the black button about 3 seconds until you hear a beep - WRONG! As you stated, you need to hold the button at least 6 seconds & UNTIL ALL LIGHTS ARE NO LONGER LIT. Thank You!

Thank you, I was frustrated for 2 days going up and down the stairs, unplugging the garage door, resetting my router, changing WiFi names, EVERYTHING!!! What a big sigh of relief to see it work now!

Instructions and troubleshooting guides were not even close. This was exactly my issue. Thank you.

Spent a couple hours trying to get the app to work, without success. Watched your video, and the two second fix. Was able to hook up the app immediately after your fix! Thanks so much!!!

Like everyone else, thank you so much!! I switched providers and it would no longer connect. I tried everything and the help tutorials. This fixed everything! Thanks again!

You are a lifesaver, spent 30mins, no where did it say to rest code, thank you! It works now finally!

After more than an hour of attempts, looking online, and trying various alternative methods, I finally found your video!! Thank you SO MUCH!

Thank you! I was so frustrated with this thing, and your video solved my problem on the first try. If they would just tell you in the instructions to hold the button for about 6 seconds, there wouldn't be a problem. Thanks again!

I too after numerous attempts was unable to connect. I tried several solutions without success until I found your video. It worked as you described. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I was so frustrated with the confusing on how to instruction on the app itself until I came across your post. Much appreciated

Thank you so much! You are awesome! I also tried everything and nearly gave up until finding your video! I wish you and your family a happy and healthy year!

Genius! Fixed my problem. Lots of frustration resolved in seconds. Thank you!

I have spent way too much time searching the internet looking for a solution and it was as simple as resetting it. Thanks for the solution!!

I was skeptical… I’m in the garage waving my router around like a magician… following all of liftmaster’s steps.. troubleshooting, FOR AN HOUR OR MORE etc… THIS WORKED!!!! YOU ARE A GOD AMONGST MEN! A million thank yous!!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I changed out my router and was having issues, your video prevented me from going crazy. MyQ should give you a consulting job. Thanks man!!! 👍🏿👊🏿

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! I spent hours (YES HOURS!) going back and forth between tp-link, frontier, and Liftmaster. No one could get my opener to connect. After all that, with your one video, in seconds I was connected. THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOU ARE THE MAN!! Oh, and one other thing, I haven't been able to connect for 3 years because I thought my signal was to weak from my supplied modem router. So I got a much better one of my own (TP-Link) and thought the problem was solved. So as you can see your video just solved years of frustration. Again, thank you so much.

Thank you very much. I concur with everyone else. The thing LiftMaster instructions leave out is the initial step of holding the black button for six seconds. That was the key step. Thank you!!!!

Thank you so much! My opener has been offline for months!! 😞 With the help of your video it’s back online and I can not wait online for an hour! ☺️

Hey! Omg thank you so much!! I love you! Im not sure why or how my garage opener unlinked from my wifi about a month ago and i have tried and tried to reconnect it and nothing worked until i tried your suggestion.

You have got to be kidding me!!! I spent weeks trying to get this work and gave up 4 months ago that it would actually work again.... And then this video! Took less than 30 secs to connect. THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU!!!

Thank you so much for this video. I got a new router about a month ago and have been trying since then to connect with no success. After watching your video, I reset it and had it setup within a couple of minutes..Again, thanks!!!

Thank you. This should be the first step in their MyQ app; especially if you are not the first user of the system or you made a mistake during set up. Thank you!

Really appreciate this!! We moved in to a new place and I followed the app instructions and the device wasn’t connecting and I didn’t want to have to contact support. This totally solved the problem!

Thank you thank you thank you!! I changed my router months ago and then spent months trying get my garage door back online. Their website was useless. Your video was the solution I was looking for.

Amazing that they don’t include this in the app directions; I don’t know how many attempts with the yellow button I tried (the manual method shown in the app) before getting too frustrated and leaving it for months later. Repeat 3-4x and I finally decided just to google it. Thank you!

Thank you so much. I literally spent 30 minutes trying to figure this out and this resolved my problem.

Fantastic video. Great discover. I spent an hour trying. Once I saw your video and tried it took me 1 minute. Thanks a million.

I initially got my LiftMaster MyQ connected and then changed my wi-fi network password. I wasn't able to reconnect even after following instructions. After watching this video, everything is connected and working as it should! Thanks for the fix!!!

This worked, thanks so much! And in case anyone is wondering, I'm almost certain this trick does NOT reset or remove other traditional garage openers. So that's good if you want those to still work.

You are a genius. I cannot believe how uselessthe instructions on the Chamberlain website are. I have tried following them for hours on and off over a year long period quitting over frustration. And this video has solved the issue. It is totally embarrassing to the company - but a huge thank you.

Even the installer gave up on this. I tried & tried too. Thankfully I found your video & it worked. Thank you!

I have the new Google Nest WiFi and could not get this working and I tried every single option. I even tried moving the WiFi Access point further away forcing a 2.4Ghz connection and nothing. After seeing this video it worked IMMEDIATELY!!!!!! Thank you so much !!!

Being a systems programmer, I found an easier solution. My one MyQ garage door opener would not connect after we experienced a power outage. The light on the back of the unit was blinking (as the video shows). So rather than reset it to the factory settings by pushing in the button, I simple unplugged the garage door motor, waited about 30 seconds and then plugged it back in. This would allow it to go through it's boot-up and diagnostics [once again]. It worked. Now I can open and close the door from my iPhone. More tech stuff if you're interested: After obtaining a new Verizon router for home, I renamed the router to what I had before with the same password. This is done by going into the Administrator settings (real easy) BEFORE connecting it to my home network (aka: plugging the ethernet cable into the back of the router). This rename was done so my two dozen WiFi device would not have to be reconfigured to the new name and password. The devices would "think" they're simply re-connecting to the same network router, as before.

Your recommendation to unplug the power cable and plug it back in does not work for me. The LS-8900w liftmaster I have fails to connect to my existing network and I've got 2 routers with providing 2 different class C IP address ranges through DHCP. One is a Bell modem/router the other is a Wifi6 Asus router. Network logs show the garage door opener wifi module (by mac address) fails to establish a connection but context is missing. Gonna try the factory reset on the garage door opener, probably will work.

Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been trying for 2 days, and until I found your video, it finally worked. Thank you so much!!

I did their recommendations countless times. Yours worked on the first try! Thanks!

Just stumbled on this video looking up programming a new remote. Man, I have been fighting this issue for over a year! THANK YOU! I had called tech, I was just outside of my warranty, so they offered over the phone only...otherwise it was $140 to come out and troubleshoot. Not happening. Would have been real difficult to ask if I changed router, or to just describe the buttons/colors on the main unit. Wow.

OMG man. FiNALLY. Been about a year and many many times up the ladder. This factory restart works. I was having a problem with not connecting because a 2.4 gzh bandwidth. Thank you friend.

Thank you for this post!! I was combing through the manuals and Chamberland web posts (which doesn't mention this at all), trying different devices, did a factory reset according to the manual, rebooting, etc. and nothing worked; was getting frustrated! I was actually on hold waiting to speak with a Chamberland tech and found this post. Immediately tried and it worked!! Thanks!! I think Chamberland needs to put a link to this video on their website!

Great video!!! Like many others, I was stuck and your video solved the issue!

Very helpful video, thank you! I would also suggest an additional step if anyone is still having an issue, like I did: doing the triple clear of the yellow learn button to clear a 310 error code.

Their support was beyond useless, and none of them suggested this as a troubleshooting step. Thank you so much for solving this for me!
