After programming my NRF51 dongle, it doesnt seem to work

[Somshekhar]

Hi , 

i have programmed my NRF51 sniffer dongle (PCA10031) using nrf programming app and I could see something like this in below pic. Is it expected output in the programmer app . Becasue my sniffer doesnt work properly . It only sniffs advertising packet , scan response packets. But I want to see connnection request packets when I am trying to establish connection between my smartphone and my ble light bulb and there are no gatt/att packets visible in the wireshark to read the data transferred over GATT characteristics .

Hi,

Based on what you write you are able to use the sniffer to obtain advertising and scan response packets, so it is clear that the dongle is programmed with the sniffer firmware. If not, nothing would have worked. So you need to look into how to use the sniffer to follow connections, but this is not related to programming itself.
