Bug Description

STEPS:
1. Install the latest rc-proposed image on flo

EXPECTED:
I expect to see no hotspot mode as there is only wifi available on flo

ACTUAL:
Hotspot is available and when enabled disabled the wifi.

USER CASE:
If at all possible it should be made that only when there is a 2/3/4g connection available that hotspot is available. popey pointed out correctly that on flo there is no modem right now, but if it were docked or a 3g modem plugged in it then would have.

POTENTIAL SOLUTION:
The enable disable button in hotspot mode should only be pressable when the circumstances are true, this way there is no need to hid the option just make it so it can not be enabled if the circumstances are false.
