Hi Deepak,

Sorry for the late reply. I spent some time trying to recreate your issue and also compare the official OTBR solution. Here are my replies to your questions.

[quote user="gettogupta"]However, does this mean that the condition I am facing is a known condition and the default solution is to reflash the NCP? - Or am I doing something wrong somewhere? [/quote]

I did experience a similar issue as your description. It seems when you do a power reset or reboot the program still remembers the former connection, a "sudo wpanctl reset" command will release the connection and create a new one.

[quote user="gettogupta"]Will this issue with NCP reflashing still be there with the NCS and Open Thread Border Router? [/quote]

The Nordic OTBR you are using is an early release modified from the official OTBR which is maintained by the Openthread development team. After constant updates, the official OTBR provides more futures and a robust process to add or delete devices now. I did not experience a similar issue by far. When you get familiar with wpantund you also would be able to debug this kind of issue. Please turn to the official OTBR suggested by NCS for your development.

[quote user="gettogupta"]Will the BLE SDKs be migrated to NCS as well? [/quote]

Yes, BLE SDK is also migrating to NCS now.

Best regards,

Charlie

Hi Charlie,

Thanks for the answer and the ticket link. I am trying it out now and if I face any problems I will come back on the same.

However, does this mean that the condition I am facing is a known condition and the default solution is to reflash the NCP? - Or am I doing something wrong somewhere?

I am sure to migrate to NCS asap. Currently we are working on a PoC for a client and wanted some Thread demo up and running asap. NCS process and documentation looked more time taking, than the SDK approach.

Will this issue with NCP reflashing still be there with the NCS and Open Thread Border Router?

Will the BLE SDKs be migrated to NCS as well?

Thanks!

Hi Deepak,

This ticket discussed a similar issue, it also provides a solution that may be helpful.

I also strongly suggest you talk with your regional sales manager about your application if you did not, because we are shifting our focus from nRF5 SDK to NCS now, you may get limited support in the future if you still work with the legacy development tools. Our sales experts can provide useful suggestions for your development. You can contact them from this page.

The latest updates about Thread can be found here Thread — nRF Connect SDK 1.5.99 documentation (nordicsemi.com).

Best regards,

Charlie
