Your device is having issues finishing the DHCP request in time and gets stuck. You can restart the network join process;

Thanks for the help... it worked! I should have read that. :$

May I ask another question, since I'm quite new in this IoT universe. After I have cut it off, it still works with the Tuya fw, thus I have to use kind of LocalTuya integration in HA right? And because it looks it doesn't support it, I will have to flush it also.

What fw do you recommend? I would just need to learn IR codes (of other remotes) and transmit them (either manually or with automations). Beside included ESPHome and OpenBeken, do I have any other alternatives that can be flashed OTA using tuya-cloudcutter?

Yes, you would use LocalTuya for integration into HA.

And because it looks it doesn't support it, I will have to flush it also.

I don't understand what you're asking here. You could possibly open an issue with LocalTuya to ask for support for your devices. I'm not sure what you mean by flush it.

What fw do you recommend?

Personally, I mostly use ESPHome, but it does have a high learning curve. I know both have some form of IR support, but don't have much experience with IR on either yet.

Beside included ESPHome and OpenBeken, do I have any other alternatives that can be flashed OTA using tuya-cloudcutter?

I'm not aware of any other firmware that supports Beken yet.

I meant flash it, since local tuya doesn't support it.

I'm not aware of any other firmware that supports Beken yet.

Does ESPHome support it at all?

Yes, ESPHome supports Beken at the core level. IR seems to be mostly working, though there may be some bugs remaining, I'm not certain, I haven't followed the latest changes there.
