How to program a nRF52840 as RELAY NODE

[stefanogradozzi]

Hi,

I want to program a nRF52840 as RELAY NODE.

If I set CONFIG_BT_MESH_RELAY=n in prj.conf, with nRF Mesh app on my smartphone I see that Relay feature of the node is Unsupported, and this is correct.

But when I set CONFIG_BT_MESH_RELAY=y in prj.conf, with nRF Mesh app I see that Relay feature of the node is Disabled.

I don't understand.

I thought that setting CONFIG_BT_MESH_RELAY=y was sufficient for make Relay feature of the node enabled

So, how can I enable the Relay feature?

Thanks

Hello,

That should be enough to enable it, but it unfortunately might give the impression that it is turned off there in the app. For more of an explaination, see here.
