Title:
  Wifi indicator shows "disconnected" in between "connecting" and
  "connected" (raring regression)

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In quantal, the network-manager indicator progressed straight from
  "connecting" (pulsing/rippling wifi symbol) to "connected" (static
  wifi signal level indicator) when successfully connected.

  In raring, it shows the "disconnected" (outlined empty lack of wifi
  symbol) symbol for a half-second or so between "connecting" and
  "connected", provoking a moment's concern of "What? My wifi connection
  failed?" until the user learns to tolerate this quirk.
