I have windows 7 and a Home wireless network. My "Internet access" icon, located in the tray at the right bottom of my screen near the clock display, used to be the well known "5 bars" all filled. Recently, after Windows did a regular, auto install of updates, that icon ("Internet access") changed to the "computer monitor with a telephone pole with a red x on it. I have inserted a copy of the icon (See below).
Can anyone tell me:
1. Why thus change occurred? and
2. How do I get my familiar 'bars' icon back?
