https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/10334/wlan-support-for-nrf52Hi everybody, as Nordic is currently working on this &quot;Internet of things&quot; thing and there are plans for an IPv6 over Bluetooth stack, I was wondering if it wouldn&#39;t be possible to implement native WLAN support on the nRF52.

Just would have been nice to do a wakeup if a special event occurs and send data using the WiFi infrastructure.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/38364?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 18 Nov 2015 17:48:58 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:82f4b5d9-df29-4aa8-bdb7-21d503690ea9Einar Thorsrud<p>No, the nRF52 radio is not capable of WiFi. The MAC layers are different, as you would expect as WiFi and BLE are designed for very different purposes (ultra low power as the main criteria for BLE versus high throughput for WiFi).</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
