I dunno when it became the norm to say the WiFi's down when it's actually totally fine and unrelated to the internet connection being down.
People at my work have said this even though they're using docks plugged with Cat 5.
Non-technical people don't have any idea what a LAN is, and can't imagine any reason for WiFi to exist other than to get their device on the Internet.
So WiFi becomes a synonym for "Internet connection", perfectly interchangeably.
And in most operating systems the wifi icon turns into some other error icon if there's no internet. So I can see the confusion.
