Solutions

1. Check the network connection between Home Assistant and the Brunt API; the update failed while communicating with the API.
2. Retry the update later; a server disconnect is often transient.
3. If the error persists, reload the Brunt integration to re-establish the session.

Example fix

The Brunt API call failed. Check network connectivity to the Brunt cloud service and retry; if the error persists, verify the account credentials and device status in the Brunt app.
