What are you talking to? This comes from windows when it can't change the baud rate. The only relevant thread I've found is this one which blames the hardware that's being hooked up. https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ad18e2a1-c25b-43e7-8b8d-019073db2c6f/why-setcommstate-error-87-?forum=vssmartdevicesnative

I am using a FTDI USB to RS232 converter. The manufacturer and SW driver provider is FTDI and Driver Date is 3/9/2016. Driver Version 2.12.16.0. Digital Signer is MS Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher. This converter is been working with other Terminal program such as Putty and TerraTerm.

I have the same issue. I suspect it may be related to commander module, as the -b option is always parsed as NaN ("not a number") regardless of the actual value.

We did get this fixed serialport-4.0.7
