Title:
  Network connection icon randomly disappears

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  PROBLEM

  After an apparently-random amount of time, the network connections
  icon will simply disappear. An active wireless connection will also be
  terminated at this time.

  A wired connection will continue to work. Upon unplugging the ethernet
  cable, no wireless connection will start up. I have not noticed if the
  icon remains up until the wire is unplugged or not.

  This problem started at some point after I had upgraded to the Natty
  beta.

  HOW TO REPRODUCE

  I am not sure. Information about my wireless chipset should be
  attached. If it is not, please tell me what further information is
  needed.

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

  Upgrades will not cause regressions in wireless network performance.
