Thankyou.
When I power on, neither Ethernet or Wifi are active.
I connect to USB, update firmware.
Now what do I do next?

use esphome download firmware by USB cable.

OK - active now with firmware installed.
Where do I install yaml file?
OK - now I complete that. Install ESPHome Device Builder to HA, then build new firmware with YAML file and upload via EPSHome Web Interface.
