I have GDB v1.0, if my router is too far from my opener, will it work?

For GDB v1.0, the device needs to be within 50 feet of the opener. The actual distance may vary depending on the opener. A good test is to use your regular remote and stand next to where you will place the garagedoorbuddy device and make sure you can control the garage door.

This issue is resolved in GDB v2.0 as it relies on its WIFI module to connect to your wifi network.
