Comment 12 for bug 1035590

I can confirm that on my Thinkpad T42 (Intel 2200BG) I am also still able to connect to the wifi wireless network even with the signal strength applet showing dimmed out (zero strength). I noticed in the NM applet drop down, my wireless network does not show as "connected", even when I am connected. The wireless network to which I am connected shows in the "available" networks list along with other networks to which I am not connected. Not sure if this is related to the zero signal strength issue, or a different issue. Finally, in the NM applet drop down, when I click on "connection information", the correct network name, ip address, and signal strength is displayed. Let me know if I can provide any further information or can help testing fixes.
