what networking library?
ArduinoHttpClient
Here's my whole sketch:
/*
This example downloads sketch update over network.
It doesn't start the OTA upload sever of the ArduinoOTA library,
it only uses the InternalStorage object of the library
to store and apply the downloaded binary file.
To create the bin file for update of a SAMD board (except of M0),
use in Arduino IDE command "Export compiled binary".
To create a bin file for AVR boards see the instructions in README.MD.
To try this example, you should have a web server where you put
the binary update.
Modify the constants below to match your configuration.

and it stops after 133 bytes?
No it stops after ~127k bytes, with 133 bytes left to go.
the Serial.println(length);
can cause problems. it slows down the download significantly
Yeah but it was broken before that, I just added that to help diagnose what was going on.
I guess it breaks even if you comment out all InternalStorage lines?
if I comment out InternalStorage.write(b);
it runs without error (although obviously then there is no code binary file to apply at the end).
correct. Seems to fail right around 127k bytes, which is just under half the available memory.
InternalStorage.write writes directly to flash memory. client.read reads directly from the Wiznet chip over SPI so there is no way to run out of memory.
hmm, weird. Any other thoughts about what might be happening then?
I suspect some timeout. I would try to use a buffer to read more bytes from client at once. It will make reading over SPI more efficient and the whole process faster.
I'm uploading to a SAMD board (Automation Direct P1AM-100) using a very slight adeptation of the example that pulls from a web address.
Smaller binary files work just fine. My final sketch/binary is 126632 bytes (48% of available mem) and InternalStorage.open(length) seems to run just fine but then the following loop crashes:
I see length come down to the same number every time (133 at the current sketch size) and then nothing after that.
Any thoughts about what might be going on here? I'd prefer if this wasn't the upper limit of the size of my sketch.
