&lt;p&gt;Why this has to be specified in the hcitool command I&amp;#39;m not sure, it&amp;#39;s specific to the hcitool implementation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Not able to connect to NRF52 DK with hcitool</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/77442?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 29 Mar 2017 00:56:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c62232f1-cadd-4fe2-8287-f3e7c20ce897</guid><dc:creator>Evan Hosseini</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Stian,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The error message I was getting was the connection timed out.  Adding the --random switch resolved the issue though for me!  Would you mind explain to me what this setting does and why it is needed for the nRF softdevice?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks,
Evan&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Not able to connect to NRF52 DK with hcitool</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/77443?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Mar 2017 08:25:28 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a0b26c4e-c002-49bc-8dd3-abb65d602b5e</guid><dc:creator>Stian R&amp;#248;ed Hafskjold</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;So what is the error message you are getting?
