Any chance you are using a Thunderbolt device such as a network adapter or external drives? I had the issue on a NUC 10 where it would randomly drop the TB devices every few weeks and occasionally appear to be frozen. The latest firmware update finally took care of it.

I did the Treatlife DS02S switch by flashing an ESP12F module with ESPHome following the guide here, then swapped the wireless module.

Works well as a normal independent switch with local control from Home Assistant.
