Windows 10: The Wi-Fi icon appears as an Ethernet icon

The Wi-Fi icon appears as an Ethernet icon, Even though I am only connected to a Wi-Fi network.

:)

 

Wrong wi-fi icon?

what if you try a simple disabling of the wifi network connection then enable it again and see if the icons change? It shows the Broadband connection as disabled anyways, so I cant think that would effect the icon status of the enabled wi-fi.

 

Wrong wi-fi icon?

I have my 'old' Black Panther system now connected by a wi-fi dongle.

There isn't a networking problem here, because the pc gets online with no problem.

However the bottom-right icon (near the clock) shows the symbol for not connected - 5 empty bars and a red cross over them.
Mousing over the icon it says 'network - internet access' *Confused And there is internet.

Why isn't the correct icon showing up? *Wtf :wtf:

 

Wrong wi-fi icon?

Done. No-go. *Oh Well hwell:

Edit: I think I solved it by deleting the 'Broadband connection' altogether

Wth the pc got confused? I was connecting through wifi yet wifi says not connected and broadband connection was connected? *Wtf :wtf:
