Maybe it comes on automatically when you plug it in (I can imagine that
being considered a feature not a bug) and that got triggered?

That’s what I mean, I can understand the router reseting and the
smart lights coming on – we also have an Echo that can control them
– but a bloody blanket reacting, I mean, how does that work!

Sounds like a very short power cut reset everything - we get those
occasionally. Is there anything like an oven clock that got reset and
is now flashing? That would explain the loss of wifi as the router
would have to restart. Less sure about the blanket!

Good morning smugglers,
This is not exactly a Mac issue but I’m intrigued and kind of
worried about this phenomena.
I was in bed this morning reading my newspaper on my iPad and I
suddenly lost my Wi-Fi connection. That’s not a drama in itself of
course, and after a bit it reconnected. But then I realised that my
bed was heating up and that my electric blanket had turned on. When I
went downstairs to make a cup of tea my three smart lights had also
turned on in the living room.
I can understand the smart lights turning on as they are controlled
by the Wi-Fi, but the electric blanket is plugged into the mains with
a controlling switch for timing and temperature, one on each side, no
connection, as far as I know, with the Wi-Fi.
Can anyone offer any explanation of what might cause this to happen?
Thanks,
Derek
