Thanks Chris from your reply. I have moved the various indicators/icons away from the right hand side of the toolbar/panel but the nm indicator still does not appear. Incidentally on my partners computer, the nm indicator is in the middle of the panel and works OK. I have got the Network Monitor 2.28.0 indicator displayed which helps. It's all a mystery to me.
