network-manager-applet displays the connectivity state of network-
manager's managed interfaces not every interface. So the title "network
manager says disconnected but is connected and working" is actually
misleading. The interface is connected and working but not from
network-manager's point of view since it is not managing the interface.
Additionally, in Lucid now network-manager applet displays nothing now
for non-managed interfaces so is less misleading. You can check to see
whether or not an interface is managed by network-manager by using the
command line too nm-tool. You'll see "State: unmanaged" for unmanaged
interfaces.
