nRF Mesh connection for nRF6936

[Marry]

Hello everyone. I have the following issue: I would like to connect some Nordic Thingy:52 nRF6936 devices in a mesh network, using the application nRF Mesh. In theory, the first step should be very simple (there is also an official video about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XthbU9NP0Yg).

However, in practice, my nodes are not found. Is there some previous set-up which needs to be made? Do you have any suggestions?

Remarks: I have the latest version of the app + all firmware updates and the nodes are recognised in other apps, for example in Nordic Thingy App or nRF Toolbox - nRF Connect App.

Thank you in advance!

Hello Mttrinh and thanks for your answer! I checked the firmware version - you may see it below, attached.

From my understanding, it is the latest version, because I updated it, as soon as I used the device the first time (last week). Am I right about this? Or is there another firmware to be installed, which does not come by default?

Nevertheless, I followed the Thingy Mesh demo from Github, which you provided me, but at the moment I do not have that specific cable, so I am on-hold at step 6. I will come back with updates next week.

Have a good time until then, Marry.

To be able to use the Thingy:52 with Mesh you need to use the firmware found in the Thingy Mesh demo Github. Won't work with Mesh with the default firmware.

Ok, I understand - I will try that. Thank you for your help!
