    Network icon has red X

    I have internet access obviously, but the network icon in the taskbar has a red circle with slash. How to fix this issue? When I check Notifications, it says "Device failed to activate". Do I need to load special firmware for my onboard NIC on Asus Sabertooth 990fx?

    This happened to me right after upgrading to 13.10. Must be a bug. I have no need for the network icon, so I just deleted it from the system tray. If you have Internet, do you need the network icon?

      Others have reported other system tray icons reporting the opposite of what reality is.

        It would be nice if things like this would just work. It's 2013 not 1990 anymore.
