      • Alternatively, you can enter setup.myqhome.com or 192.168.0.1 in the URL bar to navigate to the same web page.
      • This address navigates to a MyQ® WiFi Setup page. If it does not navigate to the MyQ® WiFi Setup page, try using a different web browser on the device.

        Note: Always type in the full URL address, do not let it auto-complete, and do not type www or Https before the web address.

    6. Follow the steps on the MyQ® WiFi Setup page to complete the setup. The user's WiFi name and password for their network are required during setup.

      Important: When prompted, do not install the MyQ® Garage app.

    7. The LED light on the hub goes solid green once it establishes a WiFi connection. Once the LED is solid green, close the web browser.

      • If the LED does not turn solid green, power cycle the hub, and try the WPS method again or try a different connection method.
