I have replaced the crank battery and the batteries in the two fobs and the problem is still there. I was even told to check the fuses for the ECU and alarm system which I did and cleaned them up. I have checked the earths on all that I could find and I still get this problem from time to time. Usually at the most inconvenient time like on the side of a hill or at the lights in heavy traffic.
I am told that the next move is the alarm module which is expensive and complicated as they have to be reprogrammed or so I am told by my LR mechanic.
Can it be bypassed or overridden. I really don't need an alarm.

I had a similar problem with my MY09 110. LRA couldn't fix it under warranty for months, they tried everything, including replacing the 10AS alarm module, the ECU, and installing a new wiring harness etc.
They eventually flew out a tech from the UK and he fixed it in a day. Ripped out the instrument cluster from a pre-delivery 90 they had in the dealership and swapped it with mine. Problem fixed. It's been 10 years since I lived this nightmare (and it's started fine since then), so my memory is fading, but apparently the signal from the fob is transmitted from the 10AS sensor through the instrument cluster (why I'll never know) to the immobiliser. On mine, there was an intermittent fault where the signal wouldn't make it through the instrument cluster - the swap out fixed it.
If you can get to a savvy LR mechanic and they can try swap the clusters you might find that that's the problem.
You said your Nanocom is permanently connected Have you tried not having the Nano connected for a while?
