My router had wireless settings for the B+G+N Network at 2.4 Ghz. The speed varied from 2 to 54 mbps. My broadcom adapter is expected to be N capable. Changed the router settings to G only at 2.4. Ghz
The network manager applet is working as it should be with the G only setting. The icon without an exclamation sign doesn't disappear when I logout en login to the same of an other user The network is mentioned under wireless networks The speed looks stable at 54 mbps So: al problems disappeared when i changed the routersetting to G only I also tried N only; It worked but all aboved mentioned problems remained the same. So the problems might be related to wireless N Networking -- [Lucid] Network Manager Applet Wi-Fi icon always shows red exclamation mark https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
