Title:
  [Lucid] Network Manager Applet Wi-Fi icon always shows red exclamation
  mark

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “network-manager” source package in Lucid:
  Triaged
Status in “network-manager” source package in Maverick:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  Installed Lucid daily as of 15 March on a Lenovo S10 Netbook
  (Installed Desktop version, NOT UNE).

  After installing the driver for my Broadcom wireless card via
  hardware-drivers, I connected to my router and surfed the internet
  while testing other things (FF, Empathy, etc)

  I noticed that the wireless icon in indicatior area ALWAYS displays a
  grey wireless representation with a red exclamation mark.

  This makes it look as though there is some error or problem though
  when I hover over the icon I get the message that I'm connected and
  have internet connectivity.

  I disabled the wireless card and nothing changed... until I tried
  connecting, then I get the spinner, until Network-Manager decides it's
  not going to be able to connect, and the icon changes back to the Wi-
  Fi with Exclamation mark.

  So, I right click and re-connect after turning the wireless card back on and I get a good connection and internet apps work, but the icon still gives me the glaring red exclamation mark
