MyQ garage door opener won't pair with eero
I am trying to connect my Chamberlin MyQ garage door opener to eero.
I was not able to get it to work via bluetooth, so I tried connecting the the webserver on the Hub ( setup.myqdevice.com ).
There it offers me three different connections for each of my primary and guest network. I have tried all 6 of them with WPA2-AES as the encryption.
The device will not pair with the eero not matter what I try. This is an older model MyQ, is this device known not to work with eero? It worked great with the most recent Airport Extreme tower that Apple made, so I am surprised it won't connect with eero.

I tried all the directions in the Chamberlain directions and none worked either to reconnect Eero wifi to the opener. Finally had to hold the wifi blue blinking light for 5 to 10 seconds until hear a beep which erased previous wifi. Then went through the set up and it worked finally. In all of Chamberlains descriptions, they dont state to do this. They talk about hitting the yellow button 3 times to turn on wifi or go through the contol on wall to start wifi mode. When doing this, it didnt connect until cleared the unit by holding down blinking wifi button. Hope this helps.

Got the new Eero pro Wifi 6 router. When replacing router, had to reset garage wifi again. Used the troubleshoot on the Eero router as above to keep on 2.4 GHz and it worked. Just need to make sure when change to 2.4, you need to make sure your phone is connected into the 2.4 wifi also. Needed to put my password in again to connect to the 2.4 on Samsung phone.

MyQ Garage Hub all of a sudden would not connect again with Eero after factory reset. I had to reset it to pair again with Homekit Hub. After resetting many times still wouldn’t connect to Eero. I even tried MyQ web based set up and nothing. Solution: I disabled WPA3 in the Eero App and Bingo it connected right away after a final attempt. Hope this helps others.
