MyQ2WorksWorked after reinstalling plugin and fixing config
Saved copy
So, I went back in and re-installed the plugin and put in the lines in my config file with the MyQ plugin. And it worked perfectly. So I don't know what I did wrong the first time. Probably some syntax error on my part. Thanks for letting my know that it worked for you though. Otherwise, I would not have even tried.

Partly worksPlugin broke when Chamberlain changed API endpoints; waits for maintainer fix
Saved copy
I don’t have an answer but my MyQ plugin stopped working this past week with similarly cryptic error messages. It seems chamberlain likes to screw around with api end points on a random basis and the plug-in breaks until the maintainers fix it.

Well the pi doesn’t need to live in your garage but the actual opener thing does (maybe that’s what you meant). I don’t have the HomeKit module but as I understand it it’s not WiFi reception it’s just unreliable as hell. The actual opener works great for me with 2/4 bars in my garage I bought a used MyQ for 20 bucks and added the plugin to my existing HB setup and have been enjoying solid operation for months (ignoring the blip of this v2.0 business which is hopefully now back on track)

Not workingKeeps going offline unless MyQ app open in background
Saved copy
… using homebridge twice now on 2 different computers that are on 24/7. Ones a Mac the other a PC. For the life of me I can’t get my robot vacuums to work. MyQ is always going off line unless the MyQ app is left open in the background. I have 11 unifi cameras running protect. My G4 buttons show up as switches not cameras. Clearly I’m doing something wrong.

Not workingErrors returned; several users moved to Meross
Saved copy
After a number of months without issue after the new api was rolled out, MyQ has turned back into a hot mess of errors. Nothing likely on the Homebridge side. Most people move to meross and I’m afraid I may follow them that way too…

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
