Adding MyQ to Orbi wifi on 2.4 ghz
First, I am not tech-savvy. Second, I used to run my home on an Apple Airport router. The other day it crashed and my wife replaced it with the Orbi RBR20. Our home has a MyQ wireless garage ...
You can temporarily disable the 5ghz SSID broadcase by unchecking the "Enable 5G SSID Broadcast" check box Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings. Long enough for you to get the IoT device connected with your setup mobile device to the 2.4Ghz SSID.

Second, I used to run my home on an Apple Airport router. The other day it crashed and my wife replaced it with the Orbi RBR20. Our home has a MyQ wireless garage door opener. Since setting up the Orbi, I cannot get MyQ to tie in with the Orbi. From what I can tell, MyQ works on a 2.4 GHz network but not 5 GHz. Can someone please walk me through how to manipulate the Orbi to accept the MyQ 2.4 GHz opener? Again, I am not tech-savvy so I would appreciate some assistance. One last thing, I use an Apple MacBook instead of Windows.
Thank you in advance!
Hi, I am having the same problem with my new RBK23. Troubleshooting says will not work with the 5Ghz setting but I cannot find the advanced settings tab on the app to temporarily dissable as has been stated above.. how do I get to this on the app??
