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?

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.
Great job @Hung Bui! Works as expected. + 5-10m through concrete and glass. We were testing on nrf52840 DK and nrf52840 dongles, nrf5SDKforMeshv310.
Unfortunately for relays we are pushed to use Zephyr to support friend feature and Zephyr is not relaying messages. Maybe you have ideas in which direction we should dig in to apply same on Zephyr relays?
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
