Learn how to connect a Chamberlain garage door opener that's ceiling mounted from Chamberlain Group. Find out how to connect your garage door opener to Wi-Fi.
Connecting your garage door opener to Wi‑Fi lets you control and monitor your garage door from anywhere using the myQ app. This guide walks you through  compatibility and complete setup in the app.

Before You Begin

✅Check Opener Compatibility

Take a quick look at the logo on your garage door opener:

  • myQ logo only (no Wi‑Fi symbol): Not Wi‑Fi capable
  • Powered by myQ logo or Wi‑Fi symbol: Wi‑Fi capable

 

If yours is not Wi-Fi enabled, you can still connect it using a myQ Smart Garage Hub. See: What Is Needed to Make My Garage Door Opener myQ Compatible?

✅What You'll Need

💡Changing Your Wi-Fi Settings?

If you recently replaced your router or changed your Wi-Fi name or password, the opener will not reconnect automatically. This is a common situation and just requires a quick reconnect.
