Should I be able to pair with a dongle on f/w 14.0.0?

Should I be able to pair with a dongle on f/w 14.0.0?

Getting a good bit of errors

Did you update the dongle? i.e. was the Dongle connected to the host when you ran the update through Agent?

Yes, all on the same firmware

get this

and

Wondering if it is a known incompatibility issue, just me, or needs a ticket raised?

In my experience, it’s hit and miss. I’ve encountered this issue in the near past, but can’t reproduce it now as my dongle reliably pairs and unpairs.

It may be worth deleting the dongle connection with/without the dongle connected. Then, try to pair the dongle. To start with a clean state, it may be worth hitting the “delete device pairings” button first.

When reproducing this issue, it may matter whether a BLE device or another dongle is already paired/connected.

Please open a firmware issue.

Looking forward to your findings!

Emmmm yeah, definitely some issues, will raise the issue.

Removing all the other BLE devices lets me pair the Dongle. But now I cannot pair any of the BLE devices, even if I remove the dongle…
