using shell script start python program runs shell command seems little complicated.
consider using full path program-files. test command "root" user see if root user creates problem.

there script called "ip-up.local" somewhere run automatically when network interface has become "up". more suitable place run command.

believe there option in "raspi-config" wait network interface before running services ( https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/latest ... an-update/ )
