Despite connection has been created I still suspect that there is a
problem with the system clock. (Arduino doesn't have RTC, does it?) So
even if your client got consensus in the hour window, slightly shifted
clock may break hidden service logic. Check the time via `date -u`.

Also, can check the logs for events about onion service descriptor
publishing progress? (Should be on `info` level AFAICT)

P.S. Does access to another (valid) onion sevice work from Arduino as a
client?
