Hi,

Newbie. I have installed mosquitto on a raspberry pi4 4 Gb. basic setup. no security.  
I’m sending values from a pico w running micropython. umttq.simple imported for MQTT. Issue I have is that every other message is missed or not received. I was sending every 5 seconds and was receiving every fourth message. increased delay to 30 seconds. misses every other one. I have increased delay to 60 seconds. Still misses every other message. The pi4 is running desktop and mosquitto. barely any processor or ram usage.

I found what was causing the issue. my code was that was updating the message content did not convert it too a byte string
