Bug Description

Before I started the installer, I connected to the Internet via wifi.

Step 1 of the installer is the language page. Step 2 confirms the basic system requirements, web connectivity, and whether to install updates and/or MP3 support. Step 3 offers to connect wireless.

However, web connectivity was already verified to be working in step 2 ("is connected to the Internet" had a green checkmark). The installer definitely shouldn't be asking to connect to a wifi network when I'm already connected.
