 I want to know weather I can communicate to nRF52832 (ble device) directly without using dongle and connecting to laptop(internal Bluetooth). 
 If I can do this, Is there some example to achieve it? Please give me suggestions, thank-you in advance</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 17 Aug 2023 01:21:56 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/102888/can-a-laptop-be-directly-connected-to-nrf-ble" /><item><title>RE: Can a laptop be directly connected to nRF BLE?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/441728?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 17 Aug 2023 01:21:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:54f178d1-d8cc-49b5-8312-68ef4a94f40e</guid><dc:creator>Lurn_Z</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Jared,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You need a devkit or a dongle to use pc-ble-driver. For it work without, you need a computer that supports Bluetooth low energy. You also need an example that use the internal BLE device, a quick google search returned &lt;a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/samples/microsoft/windows-universal-samples/bluetoothle/"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; sample from Microsoft for Windows,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;regards&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I found&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-ble-driver"&gt;pc-ble-driver&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;in your github, did it can make me to do it?&lt;/p&gt;
