First of all, my assumption here was that no WiFi icon would be shown on the display if WiFi was disabled, and that an icon with empty "beam" would be shown if WiFi was enabled but we where not connected to any.
If that is not the case, and the same icon is used in both cases, we would need to rethink that, as the user should have feedback on which is the current WiFi status. Second, I also see issues like the one in indic_wifi_wrong.png (just attached now): in this case, I disabled WiFi, and icons on the status bar were not right, but the WiFi switch was wrong. ifconfig showed that wlan0 was down. ** Attachment added: "indic_wifi_wrong.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-network/+bug/1355776/+attachment/4201114/+files/indic_wifi_wrong.png -- 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/1355776 Title: WiFi shown as enabled in indicator while disabled in status bar Status in “indicator-network” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “urfkill” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After disabling WiFi and rebooting, WiFi appears as enabled in indicator-network and system settings.
