I have Xubuntu, with 3G modem internet (mobile broadband). When I did a release-upgrade from 14.10 to 15.04, the nm-applet icon permanently disappeared. (After the lightdm logon, the nm-applet is visible for a few seconds, but then disappears.) "sudo service network-manager stop && sleep 10 && sudo service network-manager start" does NOT get it back. Rebooting neither. The "sudo nmcli connection up XX" works, this is the only way to access the internet.
