Distinguish the profile list from current use
A Linux settings export can show an old wireless profile beside the current wired connection. The NetworkManager nmcli manual explains that connection show lists stored profiles, while its active option limits the view to profiles currently in use. The existence of an old profile is therefore not evidence that viewing traffic is passing through that network now. Begin by identifying which question the output answers before changing any configuration.
Check the configuration actually applied
For an illustrative investigation, a computer contains a home wireless profile and a wired testing profile. A support screenshot showing both names establishes storage, not simultaneous use of both paths. Record the active profile and device alongside the relevant IP configuration. If a profile was edited after activation, distinguish saved settings from active data. This avoids reporting a newly entered value as if it had already been applied to the live connection.
Share only the needed fields
nmcli also has a show secrets option; it is unnecessary for describing the active connection and should not be included in a public diagnostic export. Prefer the small set of relevant fields and redact personal network names when appropriate. Do not delete unused profiles merely to simplify a screenshot. This procedure checks NetworkManager state on an applicable Linux system. It does not prove how a separate television is connected or that a particular media account accepts the current network.
