Never had this problem before, but it has now surfaced on my bedside
Radio this week, which is running community firmware.
WiFi icon will turn blue, then if I try to reconnect to WiFi, sometimes
it will, but still can't see the server.
Other times it just goes red, and no amount of futzing will get it back
online. Only a reboot will recover the connection.
After a reboot, if left alone, the Radio will stay connected for only ~5
minutes.
If I am playing anything, the connection appears to stays up
indefinitely.

Radio WiFi IP was set static via SSH years ago.
Have an older Asus router with no WiFi 6. Possibly a neighbor recently
upgraded theirs.
I saw another thread about a patch for the Radio, and potentially having
to rollback LMS to apply it, but I have no idea how to verify if the
patch is applied.
Installed wlanpoke as per instructions here. No change.

I don't need the radio to be portable, but don't have a nearby wired
network drop, so I ordered an IO Gear Etherent > WiFi adapter (read they
were slightly better than Vonets, but I like the idea of passing power
through the Vonet to the Radio, so we'll see).
However, I'm now reading that there have been issues with wired as
well...???
I'm deep in the Squeezebox ecosystem for close to 20 years, and am not
about bail now.
Will the patch mentioned above help? I can't find the info about it
again to save my life atm.
