[Touch-packages] [Bug 1585886] Re: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04
I am facing a similar issue in my HP Ubuntu 16.04 laptop... WiFi icon is grayed out, it doesn't show the active connection (though it is actually connected to my WiFi router!) and it shows other Wi-Fi networks. Sometimes, the whole icon disappears and I get the small icon of network (with the up-down arrows)! As reported by others, I suspect that it is caused due to laptop going to standby. The "service network-manager restart" command worked for me! Wish this bug could be fixed though! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585886 Title: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04 Status in indicator-applet package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Dear all, Can someone confirm an occasionally missing WiFi indicator tray icon?

every wakeup it is run.

Wifi icon on top panel disappears for me as well (16.04 + Unity). I have to use settings > network to deal with the WiFi connections. Happens mostly when I " suspend " and resume my PC. I do not use an ethernet cable. So, unable to comment on that. sudo service network-manager restart nm-applet These commands, when active on terminal brings back the icon. But, the WiFi network listing are missing at times. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585886 Title: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04 Status in indicator-applet package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Dear all, Can someone confirm an occasionally missing WiFi indicator tray icon?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1585886] Re: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04
it also happen to me, but not every time, when I suspend my laptop and turn it on... usually it comes back when I : "service network-manager restart". But, it also fails sometimes to restore it. If I reboot it comes back again, however, sometimes I simply cannot reboot because it is very inconvenient. Also, sometimes "all of a sudden" it disappears... although it keeps me connected, I feel it is very annoying... is there a solution already that does not include rebooting the system? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585886 Title: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04 Status in indicator-applet package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Dear all, Can someone confirm an occasionally missing WiFi indicator tray icon?

No, not do do with Etherenr, but with the fact that WiFi is not used. In other words, WiFi wlan0 interface goes missing after third reboot if it is not used (because I use ethernet instead). Try to disable automatic connection to your home WiFi, disable WiFi in indicator, and then reboot several times. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585886 Title: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04 Status in indicator-applet package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Dear all, Can someone confirm an occasionally missing WiFi indicator tray icon?

So, it has to do something with the Ethernet connection in your case?

I did another experiment. I've remove ehternet cable, connected WiFi to my home router. Now I could reboot as much as I want, WiFi worked, checkbox is visible and is ON inside network manager widget. BUT, later I disabled WiFi connection, attached etherne cable, rebooted and that's it - wlan0 device missing, no WiFi checkbox! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585886 Title: WiFi indicator icon disappears in Ubuntu 16.04 Status in indicator-applet package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Dear all, Can someone confirm an occasionally missing WiFi indicator tray icon?
