Bug Description
I installed the 11.10 beta 2 on my laptop last night and as soon as the installer had loaded I was informed about available networks, so I clicked in the top right hand corner on the network icon and connected it to my home network. I then clicked through the installer screens when it brought me to the connect to a wifi network screen, but I was already connected! I simply clicked next without entering anything and it stayed connected to my network but this can be confusing and annoying to anyone installing Ubuntu. It simply needs to check if I'm already connected before showing that section of the installer.
