      @jcaron Hi,

      only the firmware :-)
      I did not touch anything in my code because I was pretty sure it was working as is.
      Now I am patiently waiting for the death (hope not) of two WiPy 3 with the very latest firmware that are running since 47 hours.

        Hello,

        I'm having the same problems with reading the BT advs. My setup is a lopy with a deepsleep shield and 3 ruuvi tags that adv every second. The ruuvis are placed about 3 meters apart. The lopy is on 1.17.0.b1.

        The process is: read BT data, go to deepsleep for 15 sec, wake up, read BT data, deepsleep, etc.

        I have tried first with the BT example in the pycom docs. The scan was set to 20 seconds. In about 40% of the cases the lopy would not read the data from all the 3 ruuvis.

        Then i tried with the deinit/init. Scan for 10 sec, if not all 3 ruuvis read, deinit/init, scan for another 10 sec. It reduced the loss to only about 10%.

        In the real case the deepsleep interval will be 1 hour. So, if it doesn't read all the ruuvis, some results will be 2 hours apart or even more, depending on luck, i guess :)

        Is there any plan or update on this problem?

        Thank you

          My lopy4 arrived and i tested with it, too, although i was pretty sure it wouldn't make a difference. It didn't, it does the same thing.

          I left my lopy running since yesterday noon and from 270 readings, 223 were correct. So that's around 17-18% loss.
