ESPHome 2026.9.1 moves received Ethernet frames out of internal RAM (esphome/esphome#19377). Earlier versions run internal RAM out while streaming over Ethernet and the CAST-1 reboots (#87). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

site:github.com/esphome/esphome/blob/2026.9.1/esphome/components/http_request/update/http_request_update.cpp compare version update available
💡 Result:
In ESPHome **2026.9.1**, the HTTP-request updater checks for an available update by comparing the manifest’s `version` string with the device’s current project/ESPHome version:
- If the manifest version is **empty or exactly equals** the current version, it sets **No update**.
- Otherwise, it sets **Update available**.
This is a string-equality check, not a semantic “newer than” comparison—so the code does not establish that the manifest version is actually newer. ([github.com](https://github.com/esphome/esphome/blob/2026.9.1/esphome/components/http_request/update/http_request_update.cpp))

Publish matching stable and beta manifests before releasing 26.10.1.1.
Integrations/ESPHome/Core.yaml configures the device as 26.10.1.1 and passes the stable or beta manifest to update_http_request. ESPHome 2026.9.1 treats any non-empty manifest version that differs from the device version as an update. Both reachable manifests still advertise 26.9.21.1 and select that older OTA artifact. A device on 26.10.1.1 can therefore be offered a downgrade. Update both manifests' version and builds[].ota.path values to the 26.10.1.1 artifact.

Version: 26.10.1.1
What does this implement/fix?
Fixes the Ethernet reboots in #87 by requiring ESPHome 2026.9.1.
ESPHome 2026.9.1 includes esphome/esphome#19377, which moves received Ethernet frames out of internal RAM and into PSRAM. On earlier versions a CAST-1 streaming over Ethernet runs internal RAM out on stream starts, skips and group changes, logs
w5500.mac: no mem for receive bufferand reboots.CI already builds with stable ESPHome, so this release ships on 2026.9.1. The
min_versionbump makes a self-compiled config on 2026.9.0 stop with "Your ESPHome version is too old" instead of building the version that crashes.Tested on a CAST-1 over Ethernet, 26.9.21.1 built on 2026.9.1, grouped with a HomePod, holding 0 to 40 KB of internal RAM as ballast with two skips and a group change at each step:
No Sendspin
Lost sync, no failed allocations and no reboots on 2026.9.1. A paired WizMote kept working throughout.Types of changes
