BLE and IP transports at the same time #112

What is the expected behavior of a controller when an accessory is available over both IP and BLE? I kind of expected it to prefer IP and fall back to BLE but this is not what I see happening - I see controllers always using BLE. Is this how it's supposed to work?

This is not really an officially supported configuration as far as I know. If an accessory is advertising on both BLE and IP, then the controllers will pick one or the other. Seems like your experiment says that the controller picked up BLE.

worse, if an accessory was set up as BLE but is advertising on IP (e.g. when user configures wifi and that becomes available), controllers don't recognize it.
