[Bug 940334] [NEW] Ubiquity says I'm not connected to the internet, but I am

[RobinJ]

Public bug reported:

I downloaded a daily build from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/, put it on my
USB drive (using MultiSystem, if that makes any difference) and booted.
It immediately booted to the desktop (the Ubiquity thingy where you
choose whether you want to try or install doesn't show up when I boot
from my USB drive). I connected to a wireless network using the network
indicator, played around a bit to see what had changed, and started the
installation. It asked me which language I'd like to use, I chose Dutch.
I proceded and was presented with the choice to install updates and
codecs. But I couldn't check the box to install updates, because
Ubiquity told me I wasn't connected to the internet, but I was. In the
next step it asked me if I wanted to connect to a wireless network. When
I clicked on the network I was actually already connected to, the
password box contained the password I had already entered to connect to
my network the first time.

The problems with this:
  1. Ubiquity said I wasn't connected, but I was.
  2. The network configuration step comes *after* the step where you can choose to install updates during the installation, so you can't actually tick the box.

Additional information:
  Ubuntu 12.04 AMD64 Daily Build, downloaded a few hours ago.
  Grub menu entry which I used to boot the ISO from my USB drive:
    menuentry "ubuntu-12-04-daily-live-24-02-12.iso" {
    search --set -f "/ubuntu-12-04-daily-live-24-02-12.iso"
    loopback loop "/ubuntu-12-04-daily-live-24-02-12.iso"
    linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz root=UUID=3348-C209 debian-installer/locale=en_US.UTF-8 debian-installer/language=en kbd-chooser/method=en console-setup/layoutcode=be console-setup/variantcode= console-setup/modelcode=pc105 iso-scan/filename=/ubuntu-12-04-daily-live-24-02-12.iso boot=casper file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed noprompt quiet splash --
    initrd (loop)/casper/initrd.lz
  Unity 2D (I think, I saw that metacity was running, and not compiz. I can't really visually tell the difference anymore between Unity 2D and Unity 3D.)
