Eddystone URL malformed packet

[jefcap]

Hi,

I'm using the reference project "Experimental: Eddystone Beacon Application" to transmit Eddystone URL packets and I'm sniffing the data with Wireshark. I noticed that every time I modify the URL address, including the character '.', in wireshark it starts showing "Malformed Packet" to every packet transmitted. Any reason for this to happen? How can I fix it in case I want to transmit a URL like: http:www.test.com.xx ?

The recommended version for wireshark to be used with the sniffer is wireshark v.1.10.x. When I test examples that you describe here (wireshark v.1.10.14), there is hardly any malformed packets.

When you see the malformed packets in wireshark, does nRF Master Control panel still show the correct address?

Yes, in nRF Master Control Panel, the website address is shown correct. That's why I felt surprise about the "Malformed Packet". Shall I ignore this kind of error? Could you reproduce it with wireshark 1.12.12?
