My MSG100HK keeps going offline. I have to power cycle it and it will come online for a few hours then go back off. I searched for solutions and people are just in agreement that it’s an issue and no one knows why. Curious if anyone has figured it out yet. Or is there a better product?

Unfortunately this is the the only way for me to remotely open my garage door as the receiver has gone bad. So I’m kind of desperate for a solve.

I had the same issue. My garage walls have a fire retardant layer of foil covered foam board. It screws with the wifi, I think. I finally went with an iSmartgate opener with a USB-to-Ethernet adapter and hard wired it into my network. That was about a year ago and it hasn’t fail even a single time. I realize not everyone is in a situation where you can hard wire an opener, but if you can, it’s worth the effort.
