A:AnswerNo separate internet gateway is necessary per se. This kit is a two piece unit. The garage door mounted positional sensor and the included ceiling (or wall) mounted hub. The hub is paired to the positional sensor(s if you have multiple doors) to your Wi-Fi and is accessible using the MyQ app on your mobile device and Alexa devices.
A:AnswerYes it will! There are specific instructions and video demonstrations of the programming process for yellow, green or purple button door openers.
A:AnswerYes this system is MEANT for overhead garage door openers... if you have to manually open a garage door using your hands/arms this system wouldn't work for that.
I don't know about linking it into your Vivint security system - I would ask Vivint about that. This system does link into the Ring system so who knows... a lot of these systems do link together.
A:AnswerNo, this hub should be mounted on the ceiling near your garage door opener. Once it's connected, you have access to the app to open your garage door from your phone, from anywhere.
A:AnswerIt should be. When was your opener manufactured? If it was manufactured mid-late 1990s or later it's pretty much guaranteed to work with this system.
A:AnswerThe short answer is no. The 401 model is a hub, not a sensor. It will work as a monitor but only the 402 is a sensor. The 401 is powered by an AC to DC power supply unit that kits be plugged in and to have that setup on a moving door as a sensor is not practical. The 402 sensor unit is smaller than the 401 hub unit and the 402 is battery powered and is a positional sensor designed to mounted on the moving door.
