Smart metering to blame?

Anyone know if the elec companies are putting new signalling down the lines?
My remote control mains switches are going haywire, switching on and off at random even after substitution with new ones. Maybe it's naughty ghosts!

Did you sort it ?

Smart meters use the mobile network (GPRS) for comms. They don’t use the power network for signalling.

No, haven't had the time. Just plug in directly at the moment but it's a strange one this because the replaced remote switch was out of a different set of four.
Anyone believe in ghosts?

What sort of remote mains switches are we talking about?

pack of 4 remote sockets and one transmitter. From Lidl I think'
Just found the troubleshooting guide and there is a fix for this problem. It involves pressing the reset/recode on the tx and leave receivers and transmitter stand inoperative for about 6 hours then carry out resync.
Well blow me down, I've had these for many years (10 +) and this is the first time it's happened.
