• wireless system tray icon disappears when the wired connection is present

  When I plug in ethernet, the wireless icon disappears in the system tray.  Sometimes I connect to a Wi - Fi, and at the same time.

  Is there a way to make it stay put?

  Hello

  It is not possible to show the two notification icons when you connect to a Wi - Fi network and at the same time in the system tray.

  When you connect to a wired connection, it will display the wired connection icon and if you connect to the internet wireless, it will display an icon of wireless connection. Both will appear in the same time.

  However if you have connected both cables and wireless Internet, it will show you one of the two icons based on the priority that you have set.

  We can change the priority of the network connections and make them follow an order of desired connection. You can make Windows 8 use wired connection instead of wireless. When you start your laptop, if there is a wireless connection, your Windows laptop will connect to the Wi - Fi connection. Even if you connect to a wired connection, usage will continue to be the Wi - Fi connection. This is because, when more than one network connection is available, Windows uses the one with the lowest metric value.

  To change the priority of network connection, follow the steps.

  a. press the Windows key + C.

  b. Select Search and then type network connections.

  c. now, click the ALT key to open the convening of Menu bar. Click on advanced settings. This will open the properties box.

  d. under the tab cards and links, you will see the list of connection and Windows services related to the order in which they are consulted by network connections and others. The default value is Wi - Fi, Ethernet, and then remote access. The network connections service manages objects in the network and remote access connections folder, in which you can view the local area network and remote connections. Using up and down arrows, you can change their order and set it according to your priorities. When you change the setting as shown above and make Ethernet as first choice, your laptop will use the wired connection first by choice.

  e. click OK and the output.

  Your Windows PC will now follow this order of priority when the detection of the available network connections.

  Hope this information is useful.

• Satellite A200 - wireless in the corner icon says limited connectivity

  Hello

  I have an A200 and its fantastic summer now all of a sudden I have problems to stay connected to my wireless router.
  I have not modified parameters or messed around with anything. It seems to work fine when sitting next to the router but when its about 6 feet away in the same room the wireless in the corner icon says limited connectivity?

  After the renewal of the IP address of the wireless card, it works for a few minutes, and then the same thing happens again. The process of elimination, I decided all the problems with the router as my Playstation 3 is successfully connected and the internet connection is fine. I am currently using a usb wireless adapter, but I would like to know if there is a problem with the adapter and built-in wireless so theres nothing I can do about it.

  Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

  Thanks in advance

  Craig

  > but when its about 6 feet away in the same room the wireless in the corner icon says limited connectivity
  I don t think that it is a problem of WLan adapter.
  It looks more like a weak WiFi signal. The same goes for me if I moved into another room, and then I lost the WLan signal

  Sometimes the walls thick and strong impact on the WiFi signal reception

  But above all it s a driver problem simply WLan.
  You must update the WLan driver to the new version.
  This should help to address this problem

  Good bye

• Corrupt system tray icons

  My system tray icons have disappeared - apparently after an uninstall of Norton Internet Security (itcould be independent - but a lot of things went wrong at the same time!)

  I tried fiddling with the options of customization of system tray - hide / show etc - but this has no effect. In addition, in this menu, all icons are false. for example, the volume control - normally a photo of a mini speaker - is now just a folder icon in windows (like most of them) while others have bad program icon.

  Any ideas?

  I presume that you have uninstalled Norton via the Control Panel / Add or remove programs.  If you haven't already done so, you must also download and run the Norton removal tool.  For more information, see

  Hello

  My system tray icon settings are lost whenever I restart my laptop.

  I tried to reset all settings, I tried to install the experimental fix Windows6. 1 KB979155-x 64.msu nothing works.

  I also tried the following registry settings that now I have no more than two keys mentioned and I do not know if they had to be re-created after I cancelled them.

  1. Click Start , type regedit in the Search box and press ENTER.

     If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click allow .

  2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
     Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify HKEY_CURRENT_USER
  3. In the Details pane, click the IconStreams registry entry.
  4. On the Edit menu, click delete , and then click Yes .
  5. In the Details pane, click the PastIconsStream registry entry.

     3. On the file menu, click new task (run) , type Explorer and click OK .

  The only option is either to have all the icons in the sawn system tray which takes 3\4 of my task bar or do them all hidden which is a pain in the neck because I have to open the "new taskbar" every time.

  I hope someone can help me.

  Hello

  Good luck, you need technical support for a real computer store or system manufacturer is supported.

  Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
  Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
  obstacles in the path?

  Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon. You can download these on another
  computer if you need to and transfer on removable media.

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
  are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

• State of connection system tray icon incorrect or choosing bad network connection when it is connected to the internet with Windows 7.

  Hello people,

  My Network icon always shows that I'm connected wireless.

  If I disable my wireless, it becomes the symbol of ethernet.

  As soon as I turn on my wireless, the wireless icon appears once again!

  I am running Windows 7.

  My reports of cable 1 GB/s network

  My reports 65 MB/s wireless network

  Windows 7 allows you to select the slower wireless network that should not be the case.

  Under network connections, select advanced and advanced settings

  and change in order to make sure that the connection to the local network was the first.

  I've updated my card driver to the latest version of the software. I also uninstalled and reinstalled all network cards with all necessary reboots of the PC.

  Under properties of the connection to the network Local and the properties of the wireless connection

  I chose properties IPV4 & IPV6, advanced and set the ethernet connection for the metric of the interface of 10 and the wireless to a metric of the interface of 25.

  I did too...

  In the device-> network-> adapter Manager Intel Wireless-> properties-> tab power management-> uncheck "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

  Windows always selects the slower network ignoring the manual settings...

  He has never done this since yesterday. Please help me.

  In short, when the wired connection is used, the ETHERNET ICON must be on the system tray, and not on the Wireless ICON even if both are activated. This was the case for me two days ago.

  I don't know what to tell you. In my (wide as technician) experience, when there are two a Wi - Fi and connection the icon always shows the bars wireless.  Your computer seems to be an exception that I can't explain.

• No auto-start or for LELA system tray icon

  I lived with LELA 1.6 problems insisting I had no internet connection, and yet I did. After reviewing several people on this forum suggested downloading 3.0 I did. During two days, it should start automatically, however the icon in the system tray was a red circle with a slash through it. That no longer exists. I have to start from the menu 'start '.

  Is the SSID (broadcast is currently on) assume that appears in the details of router in LELA? If so, why is mine is empty?

  Can someone help me with these questions, please?

  1 question resolved - TeaTimer from Spybot was apparantely LELA blocking on startup so no icon was available in the system tray.

• Windows 7 starter system tray icon problem

  Hello

  Recently, I met a problem with my wifi icon in the system tray. At startup, the icon does not and continues to lead the blue sign loading. On right click, it turns into a different icon with a red x. To the left by clicking on the icon does absolutely nothing however other icons work perfectly well. The section in the control panel associated with networking also does not.

  I am able to access the internet on some sites. Some sites like hotmail etc do not load.

  I tried to reboot in safe mode, and there is no problem however, troubleshooting doesn't show anything wrong. Enter services.msc, there is nothing to slow down the computer.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

• system tray icon

  How can I reduce a VI to an icon in the tray (7,8,8.1) Windows system?

  Using the NotifyIcon .NET class. There is a nice wrapper of LabVIEW for the functions available here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-10683

  I used it in the past and outside a few leaks memory (see discussion below), it works fine. I used stably in an application for almost two years and have no problem with it.

  If you also want to hide the taskbar, you must put an INI key in your executable files. INI file (HideRootWindow = TRUE (I think?).

  (And please do not use large fonts in your posts - the default font size is fine )
