ii netspeed 0.15.2-1 Traffic monitor applet for GNOME

Netspeed < 0.15 used to display a nice wireless icon when I was connected using WiFi, now it displays an ethernet plug.

Excerpt from the changelog (on http://projects.gnome.org/netspeed):

0.15

    * Added wireless support (Pedro)

I tried to understand what was modified using git but did no succeed. I suppose this change is about displaying the WiFi signal strength as icons have been added to show that, but I get the wrong icon.

I've got the default settings:
  * Network device: [Default | ^]
  * [X] Change Icon according to selected device

Maybe it's because the interface is eth1 and not wlanXXX, but older netspeed versions used to handle that nicely, maybe
checking wireless capabilities using wireless-tools or /sys.
