We've just moved into a house we love. On the day we moved in the electric gates didn't work. I also noticed my car wouldn't lock remotely once on the drive or on the road outside. Also, when we had wifi installed, it didn't work, expect sporadically but mostly not at all except in the room with the router and only intermittently there. All of these facts may be unrelated.
The gates were under warranty, as the house was sold by a property developer and done up by him. I called the gates company and they eventually concluded that the remote fob for opening the gates was being blocked. They claimed that the electricity substation at the end of our road was the cause. It is about 100 metres away from our boundary.
I asked neighbours and they all agreed their key fobs didn't work in that area. I googled effects of electricity substations and am now rather concerned. Does anyone have any suggestions? I called Western Power Distribution and they say that the substation couldn't possibly be the cause of the gate problem. I need advice....
