How to Clear the Wi-Fi Settings on a myQ Wi-Fi Product
This article contains steps for clearing the Wi-Fi settings for LiftMaster and Chamberlain Wi-Fi connected garage door openers and myQ products.
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
- A smartphone with the latest version of the myQ app installed
- Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password.
💡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.

✅Setup Tips:
- Stay connected to your home Wi-Fi. Turning off mobile data can help avoid interruptions during setup
- Stand close to your garage door opener (within 3 feet)
Connect Your Garage Door Opener in the myQ App
Step 1: Sign in to the myQ App

Step 3: Choose Where Your Motor Is Located
The motor is the unit that powers and controls your garage door. This is not the remote or wall control.
