If you're seeing the wrong icon in nm-applet, please file *YOUR OWN* new
bug report, and write the number here. Me-too's distract developers from
being able to understand what the problem is, because many people have
slightly different issues that all look similar.

As we understand it, the original bug is fixed, where wireless would be
detected as wired on boot. That means it would show the arrows icon, but
my other issues can lead to the icon being wrong.

Unless you run 'nmcli dev' and see that the wireless device says
"ethernet" beside its name, then you are not seeing this here bug and
should open a new bug report.

If you run 'nmcli dev', and you have wireless that is connected, but
also wired or some other network device connected and you see the
arrows, then it *might* be expected behavior. Wired networks always take
precedence over wireless if both are connected. If you still think it's
wrong, please file a new bug, and include the output of 'nmcli dev' and
'ip route'.
