    Notification Area


    My network icon of the notification area is displaying incorrectly! At first, it was okay. But through times, it's changed unexpectedly. I don't know why. I got a picture of it. It's not supposed to display this way.

    Is there anyone know how to solve this problem?

    I appreciate all the answers and thanks in advance.

    What kind of connection do you have? Wired or wireless?

    rocksocheat7, Welcome to SevenForums.
    That is the icon displayed when you have a wired connection. Do you use wireless or wired network adapter?

    yes, that's right. The icon is working correctly. But on my friend's computer, it displays different, not like this. I just wonder why...

    He might have a wireless connection. Even desktop computers use wireless connections some times.

    Does his look like this?

    Even this wireless connection icon is different from mine.

    Or maybe I'm just a little bit confused. Anyway I thank you for all of your answers.

    It seems like you just have the normal wired connection while you friend has something weird. As long as you don't have a problem connecting to the internet, I wouldn't worry about it.
