Well I’ve been beating my head against the wall for too long now and it’s time to ask for assistance. I’ve been looking through this forum and through various github issues and nothing seems to entirely fit what I’m experiencing (that I’ve been able to find) but I’m not perfect, if you have suggestions where I may be better to post up my issues please feel free to point me in the right direction.
Back Story:
I have been using a bunch of Insteon gear and an ISY 944 for about a decade now. I’ve been doing so without issue, but I want more! I was introduced to Home Assistant by my brother and set up an instance… months ago - and I guess that’s really when the issues started, though I wasn’t entirely sure what was up. It started with Google Home integration directly to the ISY controller not working consistently anymore, it gives errors stating it can’t reach the device - yet it sometimes still does what was asked.
The Issue:
Fast forward to presently and I’ve determined there is something weird going on with websocket connections between HA and the ISY controller, to the point it sometimes crashes the ISY Controller (or it needs to be manually restarted). When I disable the integration within HA my issues go away, but so does the integration with 55 devices and a boat-load of automations.
Necessary Info:
I am running HA on a Linux based VM inside a docker container. I forget just where I found where to set it up like this but it was some form of official documentation. It runs along side a couple of other VMs which resize on a vSphere instance on an old enterprise level workstation I’ve been using for 5-6 years now.

Network Information
I run a Ubiquiti USG, 24 port gigabit switch and a wireless mesh network. Everything related to this scenario is hard-wired to the same switch.
Log Messages
Within my log files in HA I get the following error show up every few seconds:

Additional Information:
I had two devices on the ISY controller which didn’t always respond. They’re remote, in my garage, and while they work via the Insteon Remote I have paired to them in the garage, they’ve never worked properly within the ISY interface. Communication issues.
I have attempted to remove them, they’re gone from the ISY interface but still remain within the integration of the ISY Controller in HA. I have attempted to remove them as devices (I have disabled them) and Entities but the delete button is grey’d out. They’re currently disabled as Entities also but my Integration in HA shows the same number of devices.
Possibly Related/additional issue:
Another error I’ve noticed is related to climate. I live in Northern Canada and I don’t heat my garage unless I’m in it. My Insteon Thermostat out there shows 0 regardless if it is 0 or below. When this happens the ISY interface shows something like 127.5 degrees. Within HA I am getting a couple related errors:

So again, not entirely sure if this is the right spot to be posting this but I have to start somewhere.
I am very much willing to provide any additional logging information I can.
