Question: The Airport status menu bar icon has disappeared from my menubar. I have an airport card installed, use a NETGEAR wireless router connecting to DSL. Everything has been working perfectly up until now. Now, the menubar icon for airport does not appear. The strange thing is when I go to the Airport Pref.Pane and check the box to show Airport status in menu bar nothing happens. I open Network Connect app. and do the same thing, nothing happens. I then go back into Airport Pref.Pane and see that the box I just checked to show status in the menu bar is now unchecked. I do the same thing with Internet Connect and see that the box I checked is now unchecked. Does anyone know what gives? I have repaired permissions and still no menu bar icon appears and both Airport Pref.Pane & Internet Connect do not hold the check I put in the box to show the status in the menubar. Everything else works fine: router is working, connection is there, signal strength is up. Anyone have any experience and/or guidance they can share? Thanks, in adance, for any and all insight given to help a brother out. Peace.
