Chamberlain MYQ Orbi752 won't connect
Recently upgraded to a new mesh Orbi 752 system and all is working well except I can't get it to connect with my Chamberlin garage door opener MYQ. I know this is an issue resulting from the fact that...
- Wouldn't you know it but Chamberlain support had a fix!
Apparently the issue was using the Android app to try to connect. They showed me a work-around using a web interface to authenticate the network.
Here's what I did..
#1) Go through steps to update wifi settings via control panel on opener itself. (push and hold rectangular button until led button lights turn off on unit. Then push yellow round button 3 times. Rectangular button will blink blue.)
#2) Go to wifi settings in phone and myq opener should be visible. Select it. Let it connect.
#3) Open a browser on phone. Type in "setup.myqdevice.com" and enter. It will open a web interface for setting up the wifi. Follow prompts and it should work. It did for me and I was even able to leave AX mode enabled as well as go back to regular wpa2.

I know this is an issue resulting from the fact that the myq is only 2g and the orbi is both 2g and 5g. I've tried turning off the 5g and it still won't work.
I have a Liftmaster MyQ/wi-fi enabled garage opener motor connected to my Orbi RBR850. I don't recall a problem connecting to it because the procedure involves connecting to the unit's own 2.4Ghz wifi and then picking the network the opener tells you it wants to connect to. Since the opener only understands 2.4Ghz, it lists only 2.4Ghz networks. I don't think this has to do with 5Ghz sharing the 2.4Ghz SSID (this only causes problems when a phone app tries to use the phone's wireless connection, which may be 5Ghz or 2.4Ghz, to decide what to connect to). Your problems with your old Asus router seem to also indicate a non-5Ghz issue.
For best 2.4Ghz compatbility in Orbi AX systems, in http://orbilogin.com/ go to Advanced... Advanced... Advanced Wireless Settings and set CTS/RTS to 2347 for both bands. If that still doesn't work, try disabling AX mode (uncheck the box) for 2.4Ghz.
I'll give that a shot next. Turning of AX mode did not work.
And to a address a previous comment.. My old asus router worked fine. It wasn't until upgrading to the orbi that it became an issue.

What browser are you using? There should be some input value boxes to the right side of that screen. 64 will be seeing in two boxes. Change this to 2347.
Try a different browser?
Try disabling AX mode if you have tried this as well.
- I found it. I didn't scroll over far enough apparently. I changed the values and am going through the myq update wifi settings procedure now. Will post results shortly.
- Changing those values to didn't work. ☹️
