Bug description:
  Hi,

  When I first starting using Ubuntu (a couple of years ago) I really
  had to look up what "eth0" was. And I still think this is really
  confusing and potentially scaring for non-tech people.

  "Connected to Auto eth0" or "Could not connect to Auto eth0" doesn't
  really sounds that good?

  Maybe changing Auto to Standard or Default? Maybe "Connected to wired
  network (eth0)"?

  There is surely a more elegant way for fixing this, but my English
  isn't that good.

  Thanks
