Description
Green Flashing
The Gateway has an IP address from the router but is not connected to the internet.
Green Sold
The Gateway has an active internet connection. Infrequent blinking indicates data traffic.
Blue Solid
The Gateway has learned at least one MyQ device. The blue light infrequently blinks to indicate communication in progress with MyQ device.
Yellow Solid
The Gateway is actively waiting to learn a MyQ device. This times out after three minutes if a device is not learned.
Note: The Internet Gateway cannot be registered through Alarm.com if it is already registered through MyQ/LiftMaster. The Internet Gateway must be removed from the MyQ account before attempting to register it to Alarm.com.
Additionally, if you have already had the gateway connected to an Alarm.com account or a MyQ account, you will want to actuate the wall button a couple times before attempting to pair with Alarm.com.
