Problems encountered with Amboss add-ons need to be reported to Amboss, the add-ons are developed by individual volunteers or third parties so basically there is no support from the official Anki.

For add-ons, it’s always best to contact the developer through their requested channels. If you go to their add-on page – Tools > Add-ons > (select one) > View Add-on Page – you’ll see that they have their own guides and support community. You should be able to get help for this issue there.

If you have a separate issue with Anki’s native syncing functionality. You can post about that here, but the “Add-ons” category is not the best place to do that.

Technically Amboss developers may have set a timeout. e.g. if the deck is too large or something is wrong and there is no timeout Anki will freeze and cannot be used, so it would be better to have a timeout.

It doesn’t look like this setting is in the Config, so maybe you need to edit the add-on code directly. (but I have not looked into this add-on in detail so timeout may be caused by another reason.)
