      I am using pm2 and it’s startup scripts to start MM on boot on my pi 3. I tried several different ordering techniques including:

      [Unit]
      Description=PM2 process manager
      Documentation=https://pm2.keymetrics.io/
      Wants=network-online.target
      After=network.target network-online.target
      ....
      [Install]
      WantedBy=multi-user.target network-online.target
      

      For some reason nothing works and I keep getting auth errors on my modules and a constant Loading text in my calendar.

      I resorted to writing this in my MM startup script to wait for a ping:

      ((count = 100))
      while [[ $count -ne 0 ]] ; do
          ping -c 1 8.8.8.8
          rc=$?
          if [[ $rc -eq 0 ]] ; then
              ((count = 1))
          fi
          ((count = count - 1))
      done
      
      if [[ $rc -eq 0 ]] ; then
      	cd ~/MagicMirror
      	DISPLAY=:0 npm start
      fi
      

      Anyone else have any ideas?
