After upgrading my Metro M4 Airlift Lite from beta.20 to beta.21, I am getting the following error, and continuous board reboot...

Looking into this, https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Wi ... issues/203

I'm unable to reproduce the esp module firmware upgrade error on my Metro M4 AirLift Lite. Please try following the steps on this page to upgrade your ESP32 AirLift's firmware: https://learn.adafruit.com/upgrading-es ... -one-board and reinstall beta 21.

However, I am able to get the continuous board reboot (proposed patch is here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Wi ... o/pull/205).

I've included a build UF2 from that pull request, could you confirm it works on your end as well?

That build gives a quick warning on firmware, boots, and connects successfully.

It is still claiming: 1.0.0-beta.20 in wipper_boot_out.txt ???

I will proceed through the passthrough / upgrade procedure.

Boot, firmware notice, success....

Is that image the Metro M4 w/ AirLift or Metro S2?

I am 99% sure I was still running the beta.20 before the ESP AirLift firmware update. It never said it was running anything other than beta.20.

After the ESP module firmware upgrade...

- The pull build keeps reloading as METROM4BOOT only.
- beta.21 no longer shows the ESP firmware version warning, but keeps restarting.
- and, beta.20 still seems reliable, and no longer warnings on the ESP firmware version.

Oops, linked the wrong one..
If you go to... https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Wi ... 1669203746 -> click "build-files" -> download zip -> `metro_m4...airliftlite.uf2` should be in there.

It should display on IO as beta.22.

Got it - thank you.

Up & running, on the Metro M4 w/ AirLift. So far it's doing much better than .21.

My PyPortal was having similar issues. Complaining on ESP firmware & frequent reboots. I've upgraded the ESP firmware, and will try out .22 on it as well.
