ethernet is a lan cable for internet, is your iPhone connected to something?

I had no wired connection to iPhone, no adapters or dongles.

Connected to Wi-Fi network and that’s pretty much it, there was no hardware connection to anything.

That usually only shows up with a dongle that has an Ethernet port. I see it all the time on my ipad.
i know fancy adapters exist for iphone/lightning but maybe its just a bug that a reboot will clear up.

It can show up for certain Bluetooth devices for Ethernet over Bluetooth.
This shows up when my phone connects to my cars Bluetooth to use it as a hotspot for the internet connected apps. Though I can never get it to work properly.

Wow! That’s weird indeed. Have you tried restarting to see if it still appears?
