Please update your firmware.  You can find a firmware from 2015(!), aka
eight years newer.

There are a lot of stalls in various places shown in the log and weird
timeouts.  All those things scream "broken firmware".

But maybe this now 17 year old system is better destined in a museum
than in practical use and you can find something more modern.
