Is it an IR remote or RF ?

If its IR, do you have flourescent lights in the garage?

They could have high frequency ballasts if they are modern units. These tend
to operate at around 38kHz just where IR remotes work. Result...IR remoted
DONT work :-(

We had a Barco projector at work that was uncontrollable if the lights were
on!

HTH

Keith ....the original one :-)

My ATI remote wonder arrived today, so I connected it up to my machine
in the garage and managed to get a totally non impressive  range of 6",
and then it didn't control it all the time, not too chuffed! So I've
tried in on my other machine in the house and can get a range of 15ft at
least, so at least I know it works ok.

So any ideas on why the range in the garage is pants. The only
electrical things in there are the PC, a monitor and a freezer, would
this interfere, if not any suggestions.

Thanks,

Keith
