Red X On Network Icon But Working Perfectly

Sep 10, 2009

Let me start by saying that both my LAN and WAN (Internet) connections are working perfectly. I get full speed on the Internet, and the 4 machines in my house, 2 XP, 1 Vista, and this one which is Win 7, are networked and seeing each other without any issues. I even have my Canon MX860 connected to all machines wireless, although Windows 7 cannot use it because Canon has not released a network driver for Windows 7 yet and the Vista driver doesn't work. I use it connected via USB on the Windows 7 machine.

I have cable Internet and I am using a DLINK DIR-655 Wireless router. The main PC with the issue is wired, the others are wireless.

For some weird reason, there is a red X on my network icon. I have been unable to figure it out and as I said there are no problems with the network at all.

I am using Windows 7 RC 7100.

Has anyone else seen this issue? If so, did you find a fix?

Sometimes Pc Cannot Find Perfectly Working Wirelss

Aug 27, 2011

O.s. win 7 ultimate 7100 32-bit.I have a wireless connection set up at home that works perfectly, however sometimes my win 7 netbook cannot find the wireless network anymore.this is annoying since i didn't install new drivers, didn't change a thing and besides, my android phone and another xp computer connect without problems.i tried to restart the windows wireless auto-configuration service as well, turn on/off the wireless or remove the saved wireless network.of course in the router properties, i enabled broadcast of network ID and it's not hidden.the only things that work are either:

1) rebooting the router, after that finds network OK
2) restarting only the WLAN connection, after that finds network OK
3) removing the battery sometimes fixes the problem without 1 or 2
4) shutting down and leaving the pc to rest 5 minutes sometimes fixes the problem without 1 or 2

this is very odd, i upgraded wireless drivers to the latest. i have an Asus n10J 1.6ghz overclocked to 2.1ghz and network card is Atheros 928X.oh and by the way in the network properties i enabled "connect even if network is not broadcasting its name SSID" // which clearly is not working even if the router wouldn't broadcast it for good.i start to think that it's a bug in the network card hardware or driver.

Network Icon

Nov 19, 2009

I completed an upgrade from XP to Windows 7 Home Premium. I have seen articles stating that there should be by default a Vista style network icon in the notification area. My install has no such icon. On XP I could go to network and click/check "Display Icon". How can I add the network icon, what am I doing wrong?

Laptop Will Connect Perfectly But No Internet Access

Aug 12, 2010

My laptop will connect perfectly fine to my home network, other private networks, and many public hotspots. But there seems to be an issue recently with a few local hotspots around town here (Starbucks, McDonalds). I can go to one Starbucks and connect perfectly fine, then drive right down the street to another and while I am connected, it says I have no internet access. I've been able to connect perfectly fine here before, but suddenly this problem has continued. I'm completely at a loss for what to do. I've rebooted, disabled and re-enabled the network card, tried to troubleshoot the problem (which results in no information). The darned thing shows me that I am connected with terrific signal strength, but no internet access.

Network Icon Change

Aug 4, 2009

There is a nice range of icons for windows 7, but there were a few that I really liked in windows vista ultimate that I don't seem to be able to find.

One of which that I can remember is the network icon, in vista you could right click, change icon... and I remember being able to select an network icon that was like two monitors stacked on top of each other creating 4 montiors total, and at the bottom was just like any other vista-windows 7 network icon, a connector tube.

I am unable to find this icon to change the desktop icon for "network" in windows 7, does anyone know the icon I am talking about, and any way to download or obtain it in some other way to use?

When Click On Network Icon Nothing Happens

Jan 3, 2013

So recently my computer wouldn't start up and was saying "BOOTMGR IS MISSING | PRESS CTR+ALT+DEL TO RESTART" and then I just left the computer on for a couple days and forgot about it. And just an hour ago I started it up again just seeing if it would work, and it did. It started up and I was really happy. But I got a D-Link wireless network adapter that I connect to the tower because I can't get an Ethernet cable to reach up stairs, So I have to connect to my wi-fi. BUT when I click on "Connect to a network" nothing happens. I can't Set up a new connection or network, and when I click on the network icon on the bottom bar nothing happens. I do NOT have the Windows 7 Ultimate Repair DVD. So I can't use that.

Directory Icon In Network?

Aug 19, 2011

i set up an OU in AD that contains shortcuts to various shares on various servers. instead of having 10+ shortcut icons on their desktops, my w2k users could access all network shortcuts from one shortcut. plus, when the location of a share moves to a different server, i don't have to delete old shortcuts and create new ones on 30+ desktops. in xp, the directory icon went away so i couldn't create a shortcut to the OU. i discovered copying the dsfolder.dll icon to xp fixed the problem. can a desktop shortcut to an OU be achieved in Windows 7?

Network Icon In System Tray?

May 5, 2012

I'm connected wirelessly with no connection issues, but the system tray icon is the one for a LAN connection with a red x on it and not the wireless icon. I noticed if I flip the switch to turn of the networking adapter it reverts to a wireless icon but of course with no connection.

Network Icon Missing From Tray

Jul 17, 2012

I have installed Windows 7 Manager from Yamicsoft, I made some changes and its removed the network and icon from my tray?? I didnt choose those option in the program, I have checked and the options to show tray icons is enabled - it is in Windows 7 too, I've also tried enabling the network icon through GPEDIT to no avail - also tried following some advice from microsoft website which involved deleting two reg entrys and reloading explorer.exe - still no joy. The network (wifi) still works. I did make a restore point before I ran W7M but would like to try and fix without restoring.

Change A Folder Icon Across A Network?

Sep 11, 2010

I currently have two Windows 7 Home Premium computers on a small home network, and I would like to be able to change the folder icon of one computer from the other computer on the network. Normally, if I go into properties of a folder, I am able to change the icon. But I noticed that this option disappears for folders in shared drives on the network.

I noticed this phenomenon also occurs in previous versions of Windows as well.

Yellow Triangle On Network Icon

Oct 13, 2010

A few weeks ago I posted that I was having Network issues. There would always be a yellow triangle on the Network Icon in the System Tray but it never stopped me from connecting to the internet. Once connected the triangle would go away and everything was OK. Once you reboot the triangle is back, etc, etc...I thought the "Rename Homegroup" tweak was causing the problem because it seemed to start on the reboot after that. I WAS WRONG!! What I forgot was that I also Enabled NIS 2010 "Privacy Control" before the reboot.I have just disabled "Privacy Control" rebooted, and everything is now OK.I tested the theory by Enabling "Privacy Control" reboot back again, Disable, reboot gone again.
