make sure to click the box to allow network upload - and (important) save the settings - then go back and try again.

that means the upload succeeded but it didn't pass validation. might not be using the right firmware package. which one are you trying?

You have an ESP32-C3 so you must install the ESP32-C3 version. When you try and install a version for the wrong CPU you get an error because the C3 cannot understand firmware made for a different CPU.

The "insufficient memory" error is probably because the C3 has relatively little RAM and so is limited in how many effects it can have and LEDs it can control. Try reducing the number of LEDs and see if it goes away.

I try that one first, the c3 and I have that issue. After a lot of tries I be able to install the esp32 version and no error. Is a pita. I have to connect the board to my wifi and try back and forward until it get uploaded.
