you *should* have that applet  :S
anyways, go to system > administration > networking
and you should see it listed there, just 'activate' it again.
Would it be an idea to file a bug report for it?
try agian to get that applet up cos i find its easier than the way i 
have described. right click on a desktop panel, the one with the clock 
on will do,  Click " + add to panel" and then scroll about untill you 
(hopefully) see Network Monitor and an icon that looks like the old 56K 
activity monitor for windows, double click that and your sorted.
