    Can’t say for sure but some lookalike and counterfeit Arduinos have a hard time communicating with PCs. Is yours genuine Arduino or did you buy cheap off Alibaba or something?

    I don’t know what the issue is but knock-off Arduinos are notorious for communications issues. Could yours be non-genuine?

    Noorbeast keeps this link handy about counterfeits…

    And not sure what the code looks like but I found the communication reliability for wind could really be improved through some parsing and validating. If you are handy with programming, this sketch (for wind) is dead reliable for communications. Feel free to lift and use the input section…
