Thread mesh network capacity problem

[Wojtek]

Hi!

I have questions for Nordic developers team. What capacity of network is possible with nrf52840 thread mesh? I've tried to attach large amount of nodes to mesh and it collapsed with about ~20 devices. I mean that devices could not connect to mesh. In case of nrf52840-PDK led indicator starts to blink very strange while attempting to connect. Is there any parameters in library to change that can improve capacity of network?

My set: nRF52840+Thread sdk v0.10

Best regards, Wojciech Rzepecki
