"update available"-icon can be confused with connection

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The new icons are a great idea for conveying information on status and connectivity, but an up arrow can be confused with uptime, VPN is up, connection to “cloud”, etc, and more than once I heard people confusing this.

Describe the solution you'd like I believe using the red/greed bubbles might be clearer, or tick/cross.

Connected, Update Available: ✅⬆️ Not Connected, Update Available: ❌⬆️

The main idea is to also symbolize “not connected”

Describe alternatives you've considered bubbles, but I think they have been used too much and are not as appealing 🟢🔴
