Hello,

Does this mean that you are now able to program the dongle? Are you able to see it if you use the command "nrfjprog --ids"?

And does this mean that you were able to use it for the sniffer?

BR,

To answer my own question.

I did stumble upon a web page that suggested drag-drop of HEX files onto DAPLINK mounted volume should work; and it did.

FYI: https://wiki.makerdiary.com/nrf52840-mdk/getting-started/

For what it is worth, given all these new technologies and approaches to how a firmware can be updated I would expect a little more clarity in the processes and tools that need to be used. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the whole mbed/seger/nRF hardware/software stacks and how they are to be used.. so many tools and guides, doh.
