Is that your only router?

"it"? Does that mean that you _can_ connect the opener to your
C7000v2, or only that you should be able to, or what?

"it"? Because "can" and "cannot" are not consistent. Is the problem
that the opener can't talk to your router, or that the opener can't talk
to Chamberlain's computer, or what?
"cannot" is not a useful problem description. It does not say what
you did. It does not say what happened when you did it. As usual,
showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations.

I don't know what that means.
That suggests that there's an LED on the opener. With my weak
psychic powers, I can't see yours from here.

You don't need vast expertise to say what you're doing, and what
happens when you do it.
