Enable to pair between my computer on windows and my board runing the ble sample peripheral_hids_keyboard

[Thibaud]

Hi

I am using the sample peripheral_hids_keyboard on nRFconnect with toolchain and SDK @ V2.3.0

Using the sample, I've been able to connect and bound with this smartphone : 

I've also been able to bound with an iPhone 11 pro on ios16, after modifing this macro : OUTPUT_REP_KEYS_REF_ID from 1 to 2 (so it is not the same ID as INPUT report)

But I can't connect with a portable computer, I've tried with one on Windows 10 and one on Windows 11. 

Here the log when I try to connect with the PC on Windows 11 : 

As you can see, I've tried to connect 2 times but it failed both. 

I've also can't connect with an Android 13.

Best regards,

Thibaud

Hello,

I did a quick test on ncs v2.5.0, where the only modification I did was to disable NFC_OOB_PAIRING in kconfig

It seems to work with both my iPhone 15 pro and my Windows desktop. Though make sure to press button 1 to bond, ref:

Hello,

I've tried with 3 windows computer and I haven't been able to connect to a single one, It is not asking me any passkey. 

No matter if I try with the sdk v2.3.0 or v2.5.0.

Which I do not understand is that I am able to connect using the nRF conenct for Desktop Bluetooth Low Energy app.

But not when I try to connect from windows settings.

Regards,

Thibaud

Hello again, 

I am on a Windows 10 PC, so I will try to get someone to test on an Windows 11 in specific.

The nRF Connect for desktop app using a nRF DK to act as a normal central device, so it does not use any of the native Bluetooth drivers or chipsets in the PC.
