Since upgrading to kinetic, I see this daily. My network connectivity seems fine but yet the question mark appears in the wifi icon. Randomly the question mark will go away, leaving a normal wifi indicator showing connectivity, and then it will come back. There is no visible change in the network in that my video meeting connection seems unwavering.
While this initial bug is based on 19.10, I have only started seeing it since upgrading 22.04->22.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1844897 Title: wifi icon has question mark in it even though network is fine Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After experiencing some "turbulence" in my wifi (I rebooted my primary wifi router, which caused my laptop to fallback onto a secondary access point which didn't have full connectivity until the primary router finished rebooting, then I rebooted the primary router a second time), the wifi icon in my top bar stayed as the question-mark icon (i.e., the icon that shows when Network Manager doesn't think you have full connectivity) even after everything was back up and in fact my connectivity was fine. Turning wifi off and back on did not cause the question mark to go away. Restarting Network Manager did not cause the question mark to go away. Switching to a different wifi network and then back to the previous one didn't cause the question mark to go away. I had to reboot my laptop to get the question mark to go away.
