Is a liftmaster internet gateway required?
Unable to connect 2 new 8550s to internet. Instructions are horrible. Now reading this community it seems a liftmaster internet gateway purchase is required? Is this true? Not one mention of it in the sales process nor in the instructions.

No, 8550 with MyQ does not need the gateway. It accesses the internet on its own. The internet gateway is for older models without MyQ.

Thank you for the clarity Kevin. Been struggling for a couple of ours to get connected, and thus this site. My 10 digit S/N isn't being accepted and the instructions have me confused. Seriosuly I am not an idiot, but not as easy as 1-2-3 in the manual. I'll retry again, thanks.

Not as straight forward as the directions show. I needed to buy a wifi signal extender and call liftmaster tech support before I could connect 3 days later.

My other non-liftmaster devices in garage work fine. Just not a good sign if initial instructions are illogical.
