| | Wireless Icon Hello all  Yesterday I installed BlueSoleil for my bluetooth dongle, and now my wireless icon is acting strange, I've had this before, and never been able to fix this, does anyone have any clues? Thanks in advance. |

| | The symbol means that there are wireless connections available, but I am already connected to an AP, and it's rather annoying not so see how strong the signal is, but yeah, it looks like an asterisk to me. Last edited by Casmo; 15 Apr 2010 at 02:35 AM.. Reason: Adding. |

| | @ MDR, even when I disable the bluetooth connection, it shows this icon, so it's not that. @Crispy, I don't have an IP address conflict... |

| | There must be a way to turn that off in network preferences... Can't seem to find much on it. If you really want it not to show then download a program like this to enable/disable bluetooth on demand. http://www.vijay555.com/index.php?Releases:VJVolubilis |

Vijay555 - VJVolubilis It seems that this program is for a PDA, but to disable the bluetooth is easy enough, but that doesn't work. [Update] I uninstalled BlueSoleil, and it got worse... It shows as if a cable is disconnected now...[/] [Update] Now, look at my second picture, all the connections are gone in there...[/] Last edited by Casmo; 15 Apr 2010 at 08:15 AM..
