Bug Description
This is not a bug but rather a request for convenience and uniformity AKA cosmetic.
When booting a live 20.04.1 system(usb -> try) on hardware that doesn't have a wireless (but a NIC and no RJ45 plugged in), I find it a bit odd that the "no Internet connected" icon at the top hand right side shows a "wireless searching spectrum which is empty".
Of course, plugging a RJ45 in will also display a wificentric splash icon showing this same empty spectrum being populated by "connectivity" but being born in the old millenia, I find that this isn't inclusive enough as it rather covers "wifi" instead of the real end-user goal which is "the Internet" (Hence I would look for one of those infamous globes).
Just a lazy Sunday type of request/Thanks :)
