Nothing wrong with a Yamaha. I have an old Dreadnaught for camping and other risky trips. But that Gibson. Oh my. I've never owned a Gibson slope shoulder. Mahogany and spruce. What a combo.

I used to have a SCGC Vintage Jumbo which is patterned after that and it was an amazing guitar. If the Gibson is anything like it pure nirvana.

iSmartgate Garage Door Opener. I've been using a Meross wifi opener, but wifi in my garage is flaky due to the fireproofing material in the walls, so the opener was hit or miss. This opener has a option to use Ethernet. So far it seems instant. Time will tell, though.

Your remote has an ethernet port? Gonna need a pretty long cable if you drive anywhere

I'll help you myself:

Why not place an Access Point there, if you have a Ethernet Port? Would make WiFi better for you als well (while working on car etc)

Believe it or not, I have a wifi AP right there in the garage. I still have constant issues with IoT devices that only use wifi. My laptop and Apple TV work fine on the wifi, but IoT devices (home automation stuff) have constant connection issues. The only such devices are the current opener switch (Meross), three lights switches (Wemo), and 3 Eve Energy Power Strips. I've started replacing the Wemo switches with Eve Thread switches. The opener will be replaced tomorrow with the Ethernet wired one. That will leave just the 3 power strips, which are not something I need to access often. They're mostly always on anyway.

Sounds like the WiFi Settings aren’t perfect. I had similar issues, when I „overoptimized“ the Ubiquity WLAN settings.
I have the Meross Garage opener as well, and it works perfectly. The nearest Access Point is the next room (Fitness Room).

I have a TP-Link Deco X20 system which I would not recommend to anyone who does home automation. The biggest issue is that it does not allow you to split the 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands into separate SSIDs, so when you need your iPhone on 2.4ghz to configure an IoT device, your only option is to turn off the 5ghz band, which messes up everything else. You can also set up a 2.4ghz only guest network, but for some odd reason, that doesn't work well with the Decos. To have a 2.4ghz only network, I had to re-use my old Airport Extreme and set it to 2.4ghz only.

I blame the garage walls for my wifi issues there, but I suppose it could also be with the Deco system. It's just that the wifi issues usually occur with devices in the garage itself or when I'm using my iPhone in the garage. I've been chasing that gremlin for months. My garage walls have double insulation in them. The layer facing into the garage, behind the sheetrock, is foam board lined with a semi-metallic facing. Then there is normal wall insulation behind that. A stud finder is useless in the garage because of the foam board. Since I have so few pure wifi IoT devices, it's easier just to replace them with Thread-capable devices or wired devices.

Phillips Hue Floodlight for the garage side door.

Went to a fund raiser Thursday and ended up with this piece. The art show and auction were sponsored by National Western Stock Show benefiting Young Guns of the National Western. Artist is Shay Davis and his work is surreal, complex and yet maintains elements of realism. The artist was there and had the same shoes on as the cowboy. It is so different than the other pieces in my collection.
