Ruben Verhack (ruben-verhack) wrote : "Auto eth0" confusing for most people

Hi,

When I first starting using Ubuntu (a couple of years ago) I really had to look up what "eth0" was. And I still think this is really confusing and potentially scaring for non-tech people.

"Connected to Auto eth0" or "Could not connect to Auto eth0" doesn't really sounds that good, doesn't it?

Maybe changing Auto to Standard or Default? Maybe "Connected to cabled network (eth0)"?

There is surely a more elegant way for fixing this.

Thanks
