Not connected. Connections are available. I am connected to the internet but, and all this shows is gray bars with the yellow connection star on them.

I am connected to the internet, but it is said in the toolbar not connected and connections are available. There is only 1 link and I'm connected to it. How can I change display green bars, instead of grey bars with a yellow star?

As the title says.
It's weird, and I think that this is the reason why some of my programs connect properly?
Does anyone have a solution to fix this problem?
