Review on Genie Model GIRUD-1T Alleviates Frequency Interference In Garage Door Opener Remotes Upgrades Most Major Brands To Intellicode Security, Black by Russell Ross

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wife approved fix to rejuvenate old garage door opener

Quick and easy install with painless remote pairing.I've upgraded our 65 year old home to a smart home, in our house we have mesh wifi 6E, ZigBee and Z-Wave. I realized with all the wireless signal in our house and neighbors it drowned out our garage door opener remotes. I tried ZigBee and Z-Wave garage door relay but the wife didn't approve. Each time you leave the house and come back the ZigBee and Z-Wave remotes had to sync back up with the hub and this took a few minutes after that you will have to push the button on the remote again for the garage door to actuate. Sometimes the sync process didn't work so you're stuck in the driveway trying the remote.Next solution was to use a MyQ smart controller, this didn't work at all. MyQ only worked through the app, thus you need to dig out your phone, unlock it, find the app and tap the screen to actuate the door. This was just as bad as the z-wave and ZigBee solution.So when I came across this product it sounded like a potential solution. Ordered it, once arrived I got it installed and programmed within 5mins, this thibg WORKS! Wife approved the solution, she gets to use a old fashion garage door remote and it also works with home link garage door remotes.TLDR: this works great, I'm going to order 2 more one to use on our automatic gate and one to restore function to my mom's garage door.
