System tray Icon missing

[Guest Charles W.]

For some reason my "Internet Connected" icon no longer appears in the system

tray at the lower right side. All the other icons are there except this one

which was working fine up to now. How can I restore this icon?

Don't know of a Windows-supplied tray icon that says "Internet

Connected". Even when you enable the tray icon for the LAN connectoid

in the Network applet in Control Panel, it doesn't say that. So either

what you said it said is wrong or you'll have to figure out what 3rd

party software you installed that provided a tray icon option (that is

now disabled).

Click Start, Settings, Network Connections, (or Start, Connect To, "Show

all Connections"). Right-click the connection, click Properties, click

"Show icon in notification area when connected", OK out. If it's

selected, deselect, apply or OK out, reenter, and select it again.

Yes the internet connection still works so in that sense there is "no

problem" but previous to yesterday there was always an icon showing an

internet connection with the elapsed time showing. I just changed routers

yesterday so I am wondering if that did something??

Is it possible that you do not know everything?

That did not work but the "local Area Connection" is showing but not the

other icon showing the internet connection. It may be related to a new router

I set up yesterday but not sure why.

No, it's a normal XP glitch. Go to Network Connections, disable it and

enable it again and you should be good for a couple of months ;-)

That did not work because the connection does not appear in network

connections. Local Area Connection is there but not internet connection

Right click on Local Area Connection/Properties/General tab and you'll

see it.

I do know that the message you said it shows for the tray icon is not

one presented by a Windows included app. Since there are probably

millions of 3rd party products for Windows the exist and have existed

over the past 2 decades, it is very likely that I won't know which one

of them presented you with the message that you say it did.
