Title:
  Ubiquity should suggest connecting to a wireless network earlier

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  During the install of Ubuntu (on a notebook) a screen comes up with 3
  checks

  - a check for minimum required disk space
  - a check if connected to power
  - a check for an internet connection

  That is nice although when someone is not connected to an internet
  connection, i think the 3rd option should contain a button with setup
  wireless internet connection (or even a setup cabled connection) maybe
  an blue info button or question button that explains how to connect
  using a cabled an most importantly a wireless connection.

  Now if no internetconnection is present a user will hesitate to click
  next because one of the checks fails. I think we cannot assume the
  user knows that he or she has to click the network icon in the top
  right corner.

  The strange thing is that when an user goes to the next screen
  suddenly a dialog pops up to connect to an internetconnection. In my
  opinion this screen should appear earlier, or the other suggestion
  should be implemented.
