If we have no network connection, the networkmanagement-applet as well as knetworkmanager should display a tray icon that shows we're offline. This works as long as there is no GSM (mobile broadband) device is around.

However, if such a device is around, the tray icon shows the GSM device icon instead (regardless if we're connected to GSM or not).

If we're not connected to GSM, but to a wireless network, the wireless icon is shown (which is correct). So it's just the case where we're not connected to anything with a GSM device present where the wrong icon is displayed.

This has been fixed in networkmanagement-applet.
