Permanently set nRF52840 Dongle to advertising mode

[ble-at]

Hi, I have multiple nRF52840 Dongles and need to set one of them to permanently stay in advertising mode, even if a device disconnects.

If I use the nRF Connect tool to set the dongle to advertise, and then connect a different dongle to it and then disconnect the dongle again, nRF shows an error message ("Device disconnected") and turns off advertising. How can I make advertising stay on, no matter what happens (timeouts, disconnects,..)?

Hi,

Please make a new case about this. When you do, please specify which SDK version you are using and how you build the sample etc and any modifications you have made. I shoudl also add that for development it is better to use a DK as it has an onboard debugger.
