Long Range in Mesh V2.0.1

[Damien Berger]

Hi, 

The nRF52832 does not support Long Range and i was wondering if the use of "RADIO_MODE_NRF_250KBIT" would increase the range. My application is a mesh network.

Do you have any idea about it ? 

Why is this mode "deprecated" ?

Thank you.

Hi,

250 kbit was a 2.4 GHz proprietary mode supported by nRF51 series, it is not compatible with Bluetooth mesh. The sensitivity of this mode in nRF51 was -96 dBm, the same as 1 Mbit BLE on nRF52832. This mode is not supported by nRF52832, and the register is only included for backwards compatibility.

Best regards,
Jørgen
