BLE 5 Advertisement packet not showing

[Domneck]

Hello,

We have already product with BLE 4 and now we are moving to BLE5. As per the example code we have updated our code to BLE 5 but we are not seeing advertisement packets but we are able to establish communication with different host/Central.  

Setup details:

SDK : nRF5_SDK_15.0.0_a53641a

Soft dev:s140_nrf52_6.0.0_softdevice

MCU: NRF52840.

Advertisement packet : Primary Phy:1M and secondary is: 2MPrimary Phy:1M and secondary is: 2M

Interesting observation is: BLE sniffer is able to show the advertisement packets but same we are not seeing with mobile, Our Gateway, and Laptop.

I am not able to get this to fit in my head. As long as you use extended advertising, only scanners capable of receiving it should be able to read the name. This is also the case when using the ble_app_rscs sample.

If this is not the case, can you upload your modified full projects and the full sniffer traces (not just screenshots of them) along with instructions on what you do and how you interpret the results?
