Before that (only about 2 or 3 days ago) everything was working correctly. I'm running Vista Home Premium on this laptop. So it looks like Microsoft has migrated the problem to additional machines...

Now I'm testing on the Windows 7 RC1. Btw thanks for the advice.

This only happened after I did a factory re-install and downloaded the very latest full driver for my HP wireless enabled printer. I have noticed however that the red cross vanishes after the printer connected tab flashes up. Prior to this the internet connection works perfectly. It would seem that vista only gives permission of a clear network indicator when the printer is brought on line and not when the internet is connected. Prior to the factory re-instal I had my printer disconnected from the network and there was no problem. Dave. My Vista 64 does exactly the same thing.
