Installing the Chamberlain MyQ Garage door controller was very easy. The 2 hardware components mounted without any problem. Syncing the unit to the wifi in my home took a couple of tries but it has been working well. With the smartphone app. downloaded to our I-phones we can control the garage door, check to see if it is up or down from where ever we are, and eliminate the nagging question, "Did I remember to close the garage when I left the house?" We also receive notifications on our phone letting us know whenever the garage door is opening or closing. Our existing remotes are also still usable and have not been made inoperable when I installed the Chamberlain. If you are considering purchasing one for yourself, you should check their website to see if your garage door opener is compatible with the MyQ.

We wanted to automate our house after we purchased and installed our Wink and WeMo connected light switches, after getting two Nest 3rd generation thermostats. Brought two of these Chamberlain MyQ Controllers so we could open up our two garage doors using our phone. We braced ourselves for a difficult install because our Internet router was pretty far from the garage area. We we pleasantly surprised how easy it was to hook into our Chamberlain made garage door opener and our router. Installed the two controllers and the two sensors in just under 30 minutes. Both controllers linked up easily using our iPhones. Unexpected advantage was the units will give both push notifications and emails when each of the garage doors are opened and closed with the time and date. Best yet, in case you rush out of the house, and can't remember if you closed the garage door, all you have to do is check the status using the MyQ app. The App can also link to your Nest system to monitor you heating and cooling, although the Nest app interface is more user friendly. Tip: If you are installing two units for two separate garage doors, make sure you mount the MyQ units as far away from each other as possible. We didn't do that and when one door opens using the app, the other unit sounds the alarm.
