Nodemcu isn't detected (COM)

n00bhax opened this issue · comments

the program doesn't see the com and in device manager it's the same. Nothing is connected. I do have an arduino nano which works perfectly and is detected by device manager. I tried 2 different cables and pressing the flash and reset buttons on the esp8266.

Thanks for helping!

So most likely the reason for this is a driver issue the driver is cp2102 driver esp8266
or here is a link hope this helps

just unzip the driver and run the exe and you should start seeing the esp8266

I don't think this will work. The nodemcu was just broken. I bought another one and it worked fine

thanks for the answer though

no problem

I guess issues should be close since it is not a nodemcu problem, but a USB-to-Serial IC problem.
Look at #31
Close issue 29 and issue 31 :-) 👍

Worked for me, the COM port was available after installing the driver.
