Good catch.

I think the quickest fix is to set the default to connect-to-internet is OK

All other fixes would have too much impact for a last minute fix.

I think this fix is reliable. I'll have to work on the branch of code
that deals with connect_to_internet_ok=0 but this won't be done by
today.
