Ah... I missed that. Don't have a Pi, so I can't really test any of the following. Quick glimpse seems to indicate that in PcP optional packages have been moved from root to /usr/local, so you probably need to prefix the path to Keyboard.lua with that (i.e.

Squeezebox Radio launched in 2001 and stopped manufacturing in 2012. The UE Smart Radio launched in 2012 and is largely the same as Squeezebox Radio. So you are using technology that is probably more than 10 years old. The WiFi hardware in the device might be going faulty with age. However,
