White square in staus icon bar instead of wifi icon (12.32 KB, image/png) 2015-10-12 01:31 UTC, Flo	Details

Description Michael Catanzaro 2014-08-10 16:53:18 UTC

Today when I was attempting to connect to a wi-fi hotspot (ad-hoc mode), a wi-fi icon in the top bar indicated that I was connecting to a network. However the icon in the system menu was a white square.

Possibly related: it was stuck in the connecting state for a very long time, and I eventually gave up.

gnome-shell 3.12.2
NetworkManager 0.9.10.0

With 3.14.1, the wi-fi icon in both the system status menu and the top bar is a white square, after connecting using the Select Network option in the system status menu.

I can confirm this bug.
