It appears most of the time... and SOMETIMES it shows the right symbol.
This occurs for me on 2 different networks, always Wi-Fi. Lan is OK.

Title:
  GUI symbol for Wi-fi in 14.10 shows not connected even when connected

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “wifi-radar” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Using Ubuntu 14.10 alpha 2 with all updates. Clean install.
  Network manager 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu23
  Wifi-card: Intel Wireless 7260 (Rev 73)

  The Wi-fi symbol in the top right corner does not indicate that it is
  connected to Wi-fi even when it is connected. (It shows a question
  mark instead)

  Expected behavior is that it would show signal strength, or at the
  very least "make it grey" and remove the question mark.
