A J-Link EDU programmer would work too I believe.

Haven’t got any hardware other than this.

You can also check with another computer. May be worth double checking that it’s not the machine you’re using right now. (Virtual Machines work well too)

My company sent me a second board to work with which I didn’t have any problem with. So, definitely seems there’s an issue with that board. Anyway, thank you for your help with this!

HI, I have the same situiation as above and worked through all the steps, so not fully ready out of the box. I have a nrf91 DK, but not the required cable. Are there any reference of which cable to use when updating the bootloader using the DK?
Thanks.

You can use a Tag Connect cable as outlined in the documentation here: https://docs.jaredwolff.com/nrf9160-programming-and-debugging.html?highlight=tag%20connect#debugging-in-visual-code

Hope that helps!

P.S. since this is an old thread feel free to make a new one if you have any other questions.
