I just added a comment to a bug#1589703 and thought it might be helpfull also in a network indicator case:
"What I noticed in two cases (valid also for a bug#1560373) is that the notification area doesn't update its status. It shows the alarm clock icon or network icon with no connection only as long as we do not drop notification area down. Always when I pull it down, the network icon updates and false alarm clock disappears. Seems like a whole notification area falls asleep and takes its status from an unknown point in time". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1560373 Title: network indicator shows no connection but browser works To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1560373/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
