try right clicking the "broadcast" icon.

If you press ALT+F2 and run:

nm-applet

does it run?

Hi,
firstly Thanks for suggestion, but as you told, in my condition, either way
of clicking (right or left) a Broadcast Account window open, which give
option for adding or removing any social networking site a/c as facebook,
twitter, digg etc.....but no icon or menu for relented to network, Thus
overall its not solve my problem,
I will appreciate for any more suggestion....which solve my problem.....

With Regards!

Hi,
Thanks for showing interest to solve my problem,
So firstly i discuss my previous experience with XP..
AS i am using BSNL broadband internet connection, in XP my internet
connection not connected by-default...mean not connected automatically... It
provide local area (BSNL) connection icon on desktop and one in quick launch
in status bar, from where i was connected as when i need as it asked
user-name and passord and after authentication of user-name and password, my
internet connection is connected with BSNL service provider's server.
Thus it provide to control internet connection, as have limited plan upto
1.5 gb per month.
Now As i need ubuntu OS, I install it through cd, which ask me 2 option for
installation of Ubuntu OS, first one as full version and second one is as
inside Windows OS.
And i choose second one , mean inside windows OS, so it provide dual boot
mean at boot time it provide menu to choose Which OS you want to boot with
defult one is WIndows XP, second one is Ubuntu OS.
now my problem is that as soon i boot with Ubuntu OS my internet connection
is connected automatically, which i don't want.
after boot the screen appear is two panel....One is upside one is at bottom.
in upside pannel from left there is menus which are application, places,
system after that mozila icon and after that blank space in panel and in
right side there are some option first one for voice, second one is envelop
which have option for chat, mail, broadcast and third one is a icon for
whether report after that time and date after that another icon for chat and
last one is power icon which provide sumenu such as for hibernate restart
shutdown etc....is the description of upper panel.

So what is my problem....
My problem is that is there is any option to connect or disconnect internet
connection in any menu or at panel in Ubuntu OS, because i don't want that
internet connected automatically as soon i boot Ubuntu OS.

If this whole description is not sufficient to understand my problem then
please tell me what i need to describe my problem...
I giving whole view according to me..but still any doubt then guide in which
way i describe my problem,....

So I will appreciate for any more suggestion....which solve my problem....
Thanks!

With Regards!

Go to System -> Administration -> Network Connections
Choose the Mobile Broadband tab
Select your connection and in the options it provides, you should uncheck "connect automatically".

Hi @Eliah Kagan

Thanks to your such a great suggestion. It solve my problem and provide a
network manager in system notification area in panel.

But as i am beginner in linux, as soon i run all these command my Internet
connection got disconnect, and never connect
, so i again run the command which you send to me and think this time i i
do the previous setting so this time i did *managed=true*. to revert my old
setting (in regard this will may connect my Internet connection, i think
this because of reason...when firstly i run those command my connection
disconnect and not connect again...), which result my Ubuntu OS
crashed...got hanged in terminal...and after some time i try restart
manually from restart button...but my linux OS will not boot...it displays
me some error message.....and after two day goggling and installing again
and again...(because second time my XP boot loder not work only Ubntu os
boot...after do More R& D i get finally solution by own....
At current time I learn how to configure Internet connection ..and how to
run network manager ......and currently i am running Ubuntu OS inside
XP.....need again installing both software....(when in relif...now i get
some concept and formal with ubuntu...)
I know it useless to discuss here ...but i happy because after two day head
ache a get a sign of relief......SO Thank Thanks Thanks.....for great
help...

Thanks Thanks Thanks...it works....Great job...

I'm glad the problem is fixed.

You said your Internet connection stopped when followed my instructions--it will almost certainly stop for a short time, and in some cases, depending on how your cable modem is set up, might require rebooting (or another procedure which I did not detail) to restore. So that's not an indication of a problem.

You also talked about a Terminal hang. I would need a more complete description of what happened and when in order to explain this, but I will point out that the Terminal may appear hung while a command is running, and when you run "gksudo gedit ...", that command will remain running until you exit the text editor. In general, if the Terminal seems hung and there's nothing you can do about it, you can press Ctrl+C. If that doesn't work, you can "hang up" the Terminal on the command it's running by closing the Terminal window. If you're performing a system administration task and you have to do that, you might want to reboot, though often doing so is not necessary. You can reboot by selecting Restart in the shut down menu--you should avoid powering off your computer while it's running, except when doing so is absolutely necessary.

You could probably have saved some effort by asking for help rather than repeatedly reinstalling Ubuntu multiple times. But, I'm glad everything seems to be working for you now.
