Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my myQ camera keep going offline?
Common causes include weak Wi-Fi signal, router changes, or interference from other devices. Ensure your camera is on a 2.4 GHz network and within range of the router.
Will error code 14 affect my garage door operation?
No, error code 14 only affects the camera. Your garage door will still open and close normally using the remote, keypad, or myQ app.
How do I know if my myQ camera is connected?
In the myQ app, the camera will show a green checkmark and live video. On the camera itself, a solid blue light indicates a good connection; blinking blue means it's trying to connect.
Can I use a Wi-Fi extender for my myQ camera?
Yes, but the extender must support 2.4 GHz. Place it halfway between the router and camera to boost signal strength.
Do I need a subscription to fix error code 14?
No, reconnecting the camera to Wi-Fi is free. A subscription is only required for cloud recording and advanced features.
