I think every explanation of TCP I've EVER seen starts out with the line "TCP is a connection oriented protocol."

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a virtual circuit protocol that is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite, often simply referred to as TCP/IP. Using TCP, applications on networked hosts can create connections to one another, over which they can exchange streams of data. The protocol guarantees reliable and in-order delivery of data from sender to receiver. TCP also distinguishes data for multiple connections by concurrent applications (e.g. Web server and e-mail server) running on the same host.

I'm not sure what you mean by connection or connection-less protocol. If you mean physical wired connection than no. Wifi uses TCP also.

TCP is connection oriented. UDP is connectionless.

It is a connection oriented protocol, as it handshakes once connection is established. It's close cousin, UDP is connection less. (broadcast type)
