 I&amp;#39;m testing the ble_app_att_mtu_throuput example on SDK15.2, I found that the throughput becomes very fast by just changing the &amp;#39;data_length&amp;#39; from 27 to 251 compared with the default configuration. 
 
 Default configuration :

&lt;p&gt;By increasing the data length (data length extension, DLE), you are increasing the number of bytes that can sent in each on-air packet. If you do not have a lot of wireless interference, it can be very quick to set the DLE to 251. If you have a lot of wireless interference, it can be better to use a smaller value because if a packet does not arrive, the contents of that packet need to be retransmitted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reason that ATT MTU is less than the DL is because there are 4 header packets that cannot be used to send data on (link layer header I believe).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The best idea is to read &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/b/blog/posts/throughput-and-long-range-demo"&gt;this blog post&lt;/a&gt; carefully. Everything is explained very well there.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kind Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
