I'm working with the nRF52840 PDK and I'm wondering how to change the PHY (preferably to CODED) in a Mesh. Has that been implemented yet? Or when can we expect this feature?

Yes there is a great difference in the range. and more importantly to me it get through the local interference inside. I tested the range on our production floor. But I have not done any real range testing due to the weather here.
Been a while since i visited this topic. Any news? Done any test on newer versions of the Mesh SDK?

The latest Mesh SDK version is 3.1.
AFAIK the official Mesh specs still do NOT support Bluetooth 5.
I know that the mesh spec does not support Bluetooth 5 but the question was If anyone testet the ”trick” above to enable coded PHY over Mesh in the latest version of the Mesh SD! We are interested to see what cab be achieved in future long range mesh.
I am testing Long Range now with the intent of integrating into the mesh,. So far I have had nothing other then the Throughput test used by Nordic for range testing do anything with the long range. I saw a drop in throughput but have not tested the range yet.
Hi Jeff,
Are you using the latst version of the SDKs to do this an used Hung's method as decribed earlier in this thread?

One of the problem I had testing long range was that my nRF52840 dev kits have a revision AA chip. I have since acquired 3 Rigado bmd-340 dev kits with the newer chips they are functional using the sdk15.2_mod example. Still looking at how this will work with regular BLE before trying the mesh
