In your setup my guess is that internet is required all the time because Siri is sending commands to Livekey which sends it to your online myQ account and then myQ service is sending command to controller from internet.

It turns out that Siri just refused to recognize the phrases I set up. I have three garage doors, and in myQ they’re named Garage Door 1, Garage Door 2, and Garage Door 3. So I thought the easiest way of dealing with this would be to create Siri phrases such as “Open Garage Door 1”, “Close Garage Door 1,” etc. Again, that didn’t work. Siri kept telling me the accessory wasn’t found in my “Home”. I played around with various phrases that both made sense and functioned, and finally landed on: Open Tesla Garage Close Tesla Garage Open VW Garage Close VW Garage Open MINI Garage Close MINI Garage Why Siri has no issues with those more complex phrases, but does have issues with the simple numbered ones, I have no idea! The really ironic(?) thing is that I have myQ active in my Tesla, and it works flawlessly for automatic opening of its garage door when I arrive home. But, it will automatically close the garage door only about 1 out of every 15 times I leave. Now at least I can just say “Close Tesla Garage” as I’m backing out and Siri will close the door for me. My MINI has a HomeLink mirror, so I just push the button on the mirror when I’m leaving. And I also have Tailwind iQ3 so the MINI will automatically open the garage when I arrive home. The VW also has built-in myQ support and it works flawlessly (leaving and coming home, unlike the Tesla), but I’ll use the Siri command to open the door as I’m getting in the car.

I only have one door so it was easy "Siri Open Garage Door". Thanks for sharing. I'm sure this will help others out.
