Unable to add multiple peripheral connections on my nrf52840 dongle

[Subbu_queter]

I think this code snippet is causing the issue, since I am able to make the device work by setting:

'NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT = 1' and
'NRF_SDH_BLE_TOTAL_LINK_COUNT = 1',

however it doesn't work upon setting it to more than one.

I think this code snippet is causing some issue, please help me out if anyone has resolved this!
