Public bug reported: When Network Manager is used to connect to a wireless network (WiFi or mobile broadband), the nm-applet icon in the notification tray shows the signal strength of the current connection, so that the user can see in a glance what is the current status of their connection.
This works very well when not using the Ubuntu indicator applet, but when the indicator applet is in use it swallows the nm-applet icon and the resulting icon is static - it only reflects the connection type by not the signal strength. As can be seen in the screenshot, the nm-applet menu shows the correct signal strength while the indicator icon seems to show full strength even when that is not the case. This bug is for the current Natty version. ** Affects: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/706503 Title: nm-applet icon does not reflect signal strength -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
