Just found out it is just one off the new "improvements" into gnome 3.10 .
Now when the network is down , that network icon will show up. However it becomes total usseles as there is no menu anymore attached to that "improved" applet. You can not quickly check or modifie you're network anymore trough that applet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1308291 Title: network-manager icon is gone in 14.04 Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 14.04, the network-manger icon is no longer shown by gnome-shell.
