I'm pretty sure that's just the way it is for the display in the new client. I don't see any options in there to change anything for the display either.

You can disconnect while it works. You might want to set it to ask before it attempts to use the network so you'll get a message letting you know it needs access so it can send/receive work. You can set that in the connections tab in the F@H control panel.
