After reboot, the wifi icon is there. But when i restart the net-work manager, i get the Ethernet icon again and the list of wifi-networks in range is gone again.
Steps to reproduce:
- Click on the wifi icon in the indicator
- Uncheck "Enable Networking"
- Check "Enable Networking"
Result: The Network-manager reconnects to the network, but gives no list of networks in range and the icon is the one for Ethernet.
Expected result: The Network-manager reconnects to the network, shows list of networks in range and the icon is the one for Ethernet wifi.
