Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 1-Blue 2-Blue light pattern on my MyQ hub an error?
No, the 1-Blue 2-Blue pattern is not actually an error. It's a normal status indicator showing that your hub is in Wi-Fi setup mode and ready to connect to your wireless network.
Why does my MyQ hub keep showing 1-Blue 2-Blue lights?
If this pattern persists, your hub likely lost its Wi-Fi connection due to network changes, router issues, or power outages. You'll need to reconnect it to your Wi-Fi network through the MyQ app.
Can I use a 5GHz Wi-Fi network with my Chamberlain MyQ hub?
Most MyQ hubs only support 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks. Check your router settings and connect to the 2.4GHz band, which typically has better range for garage installations anyway.
How long should the Wi-Fi setup process take for MyQ?
The Wi-Fi setup typically takes 1-3 minutes once you start the process in the MyQ app. If it takes longer than 5 minutes, there may be a connection issue with your network or hub placement.
What should I do if my MyQ hub won't connect to Wi-Fi during setup?
Try moving your router closer to the garage temporarily, ensure you're using the 2.4GHz network, check that your Wi-Fi password is correct, and make sure your network doesn't have special security settings that block new devices.
