Win7 Home Premium - systray Wireless network connection icon?

Hi,
My home wireless connection is running fine and I do not have my Ethernet cable plugged in.
In the systray part of the taskbar, there used to show a Wireless network connection icon - a little graphic icon that looked like 5 vertical bars side-by-side, with bars increasing in height, left to right. That icon is no longer in the systray and
it appears to have been replaced by the "wired" icon - a little square with a tiny picture of a plugger on its left side. And since I don't have my Ethernet cable plugged in, there's a little red "x" on the wired icon. I don't
know what I did to cause the wired icon to replace the Wireless network connection icon in the systray. Any idea how I screwed this up and how to put things back again?

Hi cwr64,
It might be caused by netsh command using. Please try following methods
Method1: Uninstall all “6to4 Afapter” and “isatap” device in device manager.
Right click this computer->Properties->Device manager->View->show hidden devices
Right click and uninstall all “6TO4 Adapter” and “isatap” devices in
Network adapters.
Method 2
Please try to uninstall all your network adapter driver and reinstall them again. Then restart your computer check if the icon comes back. It might be caused by netsh command using.
Note: backup or download your adapter driver before removing the drivers from device manager.

E52 fw 031.012 3g data "connecting" icon always on...

Since the last update of my E52's firmware, the 3G connecting (not "connected") icon - which is the one with the dotted 2-way arrow under the signal meter - is always shown on the screen. I have no applications running in the background (as the task manager says). I have disabled all the internet synchronisations and the icon is still there, from the moment I power-up my phone.
This doesn't cause me any problem (apparently), but I was wondering if that is normal. Other than this, all applications that use this kind of connection work fine. They connect through 3g (the icon goes to full 2-way arrow), they do their job and then they disconnect and the connection icon goes back to the "connecting" state.
I have also tried to force the phone to close all active data connections, by keeping the hang-up button pressed for a few seconds, but nothing happens.
Any idea?

When I open Firefox, it is not automatically opening a network connection. I have to manually open the network connection before browsing. How do I get Firefox to automatically open the connection?

I have to click on the network connections icon and ask it to refresh before Firefox makes the connection. This never happened with Explorer and I don't remember it happening the first few months with Firefox. Did I foul up my settings somehow? Or add plug-in or extension that is causing this?

Every now and then, you should run these programs<BR><BR>

Losing network connection when loading new firmware from iTunes (or syncing

Noticed this when loading 1.1.1 weeks ago and now 1.1.2. Several times during the download/installation process, I lost my network connection. Rebooting the PC restored it, only to have it go down again, requiring another reboot. Required several PC (not iPhone) reboots to be able to complete the process. This happens only during this process -- I otherwise never lose my network connection and always enjoy super speed. Paid it no mind and dismissed as a fluke during 1.1.1 upload, but was surprised to see it again this time. In both cases the final download and install worked perfectly. It's just a time-consuming hassle -- kinda weird -- thx much in advance for any clues about this...

It appears the problem appears only when using torrent software.
There is a lot of discussion on different torrent software forums about this, and directions on how to get around this issue. However with my skills I only managed to get Vuze to work properly while killing the network access from all other application. So i just went back to default settings.
I give up for now, I'll wait until Apple releases OS X update that works together with these programs (like it did in tiger and earlier versions..) or if it's even possible, one of the programs finds a way to get around this issue.

Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V Host Loses Network Connectivity

Here's the scenario...
We have two 2012 R2 Hyper-V hosts (VM1 and VM2) in a cluster that have 8 virtual machines that live on them. The servers are each utilizing three network connections that are teamed (Switch Independent, Address Hash). They all go to the same switch.
Three nights ago at approximately 11:30 PM VM2 lost network connectivity. The server was up it was just inaccessible from the network. I could not ping in or out from it, no internet connection, yet the network connection icon did not show that it was
disconnected.
Two nights ago we had no issues.
Last night, same thing happened at 11:30 PM. VM2 loses it network connection.
The only thing that seems to fix the issue is a reboot. Once the server comes back up everything is back to normal.
Anyone have any idea what is happening here? I do not see anything that sticks out in the logs that could point me in the right direction....

Hi Sir,
Based on my experience , first you may need to keep the physical NIC driver up-to-date .
Also please check if there is "VMQ"/"virtual machine queue" property in advanced properties of physical NICs:
If yes please disable it for each team member then check the result .

Activity icon always running on certain websites

When viewing certain websites in Safari (such as AllThingsD) the Activiy icon is always spinning. If I switch to another tab, the icon will disappear after a few seconds, but will return as soon as I switch back to the offending websites. Is there some kind of information being constantly pulled from my ipad? Why do only certain websites cause this? I'm concerned about what the sites are doing and how it affects my battery drain, since the activity is continuous.
Thanks in advance :-)

Appears there's another thread on this issue. Search for the thread "Iphone 5s Network activity icon always on" for discussion.

Equium A60-181 Win XP: incorrect network connection - Taskbar icon notification

Hi everyone,
Ive had my Equium A60-181 for quite a while now and its been quite reliable, its always connected via WiFi to my home network.
Very recently though, the icon in the system tray for network connectivity has been incorrect. It always says I am not connected to the network... but I am, because the internet works and I can still access the network drive which is on another computer on the network, and the network printers.
Why does the system tray tell me that i am not connected to the network when I am?
All help will be greatly appreciated.
And Happy New Year.

Hi
I presume you have assigned the LAN TCP/IP address and the gateway settings manually and these settings are not set to automatic. Am I right?
The same message appeared to me. I have connected my notebook to the other PC and changed the TCP/IP address settings.
This was the reason for this message in the taskbar.
Just simply set it to automatic again and you will get rid of this annoying message.
Best regards

Hi，
So switch a LAN card fix this issue...seems a compatibility issue or maybe some packs or programs you installed recently cause this issue.
Have you manually check the network adapter driver from the PC's manufacture website? sometimes, it will be a time delay before Microsoft push out the driver update.
Check if issue exists in safemode with network, this mode will launch Windows with limited sets of files and drivers.
if you have a restore point, restore the pc to a previous point at which the pc is functioning fine.

I would try another restore of the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. Maybe something went wrong in the process. Make sure everything works before applying any updates and adding any hardware or software.
Then add things carefully, rebooting Windows and testing the USB and audio at each step.
Please note this.
The only info windows gives me for the sound card is that it from Microsoft... with a driver version of 6.1.7601.17514....which naturally doesn't really help me since I have no idea what card or mobo I have . Is there any way for me to find out what I need other than opening up my laptop?
Every one of them lists my mobo simply as a Toshiba motherboard, with no audio card information. Which I'm assuming that is because it has an internal sound processor. My problem is that none of the properties, or ANYTHING I try, will give me information on what I need to fix this...
All of the latest drivers for your model are easily found here. This one is for the sound.

TS1135 Cannot process the Photo Book; it fails always at the very last stage with "error occurred while uploading on of your files. Pls check your network connection and click Retry..." Tried at 12 times and no joy! Can anyone help?

Can anyone help with the Photo Book process? I have tried at least a dozen times and the Photo Book always fails at the very last stage of the process. I ordered Buy Book, it assembles the book and files are transferred until the very last moment... it says " An error occurred while uoloading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your files." It fails every time, any advice? My server is TalkTalk which may explain everything !! ?? Help.

Boot into Safe Mode, Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode, and order from there.
Also make a PDF file of your book according to this Apple Document, iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it, before you order to check for errors. Keep that file to compare with the printed copy when it arrives.
