[quote user=""]We also can&amp;#39;t connect them directly to the computer. The ideal scenario is that we would connect to the devices from a BLE capable dongle and then flash them over the air.&amp;nbsp;[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;So&amp;nbsp; you want to perform the update from a PC that has a BLE dongle inserted into it instead of connecting them to a computer via a cable?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If that is the case then you could use our nrfutil tool, which allows you to update a device over BLE by using a Nordic board as the BLE frontend. See&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-nrfutil"&gt;https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-nrfutil&lt;/a&gt;.This tool can only update one device at the time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards&lt;/p&gt;
