Boot loop if internet access is blocked #673

On startup, the glow tries to access glow-energy.io (I assume to check for firmware updates). On my network, IOT devices like the glow are located within a separate VLAN which doesn't have access to the internet. In this situation, the glow performs constant resets and cannot be used at all.
I can resolve the situation if I grant internet access to the glow. In this case, everything works like a charm.

Is there a way to disable the connection to glow-energy.io or would it be possible to make it more robust?

Kind regards,
André

I would keep it easy for yourself and give the glow access to the internet, so that it continue to receive firmware updates.

An alternative is to create a custom firmware for your glow. I'm not sure if just adopting is enough to disable the http_request update or if you actually need to create your own YAML config from the ground up and customize it.

Sorry, but I'm not so familiar with ESPHome.
Can I use !remove? But which part of updates.yaml should I remove?
If I use !extend, could I set 'timeout' of http_request to 0 to avoid blocking?

Thanks,
André
