graph, share-network, tree-structure do none of these work?

Though I don't think we have slashed versions of any of those.

They have some overlapping functionality, but it should also be able to convey the presence of an IP network or generic wired network

+1. Just to add context on the "existing alternatives" point: all the existing alternatives are either more generic than a computer network (graphs, tree structures) or have existing common semantics in software (the share icon) that would cause confusion.

I'm building developer tools, and I'm looking for a icon to illustrate "local wired network connection" specifically (as opposed to lots of other types of connections and devices). I don't have an immediate need for a slashed version but I can easily imagine use cases in future.

An icon to illustrate this more precisely would be great. I think font-awesome's take (three boxes all connected to a wire along the middle) is good, and very similar patterns seem to be used in most icon sets elsewhere (Lucide, Iconoir (under 'Connectivity'), Google Icons). I'd love to see a Phosphor version.

Totally. We're including true network and network-slash in the upcoming release.
