I use pppoeconf to connect to my ADSL connection using the ethernet port. And I lost my panel applet after I configured my ADSL connection (this is also the case with other people on the forum thread I linked below). Before that, on a clean lucid install, the applet was appearing normally and I could connect to my University's wireless networks.
Here's what I get when I type "nm-applet" in the terminal:
** (nm-applet:2271): WARNING **: <WARN> constructor(): Couldn't initialize the D-Bus manager.
This forum post gives a method for restoring the nm-applet: ubuntuforums. org/showpost. php?p=9236722& postcount= 16 doc/network- manager/ README. Debian. Read that to get an idea of what is actually being done there. This is just an alternate approach to the one as described by miked1981 in this bug report: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ network- manager- applet/ +bug/456468 (https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ network- manager- applet/ +bug/456468/ comments/ 12)

This can be used as a workaround until they get it fixed. This method is explained in the file
/usr/share/
And this is what my .xsession-errors has to say:
** (nm-applet:1832): DEBUG: old state indicates that this was not a disconnect 0
** (nm-applet:1832): DEBUG: old state indicates that this was not a disconnect 0
And I got the above outputs when I was not using the workaround described in the thread.
