When the icon is wrong i AM connected, but if i get disconnected at that point, the only way to get back on-line is by using "connect to hidden network" since the indicator will not show any wifi in range.
On my laptop, deleting all known networks and rebooting solved my issue. On my desktop, this didn't help and i'm still struggling with the bug. I will try using unity and report back. The attached files to this bug are from my laptop, i will report it from my desktop too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager-applet in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1572938 Title: Connected to wifi, the indicator behaves odly Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When connecting to wifi the first time after install, the indicator show icon for Ethernet connection.
