Go figure, after installing SP2 and having the problem as described
above, after rebooting the computer several times the regular dual
terminal icon has returned for the hard wired connection and they are
now correct. That is, for the wireless connection you get the little
wireless icon and for the regular hard wired icon you now get the old
dual terminal icon. I guess when you install SP2 on XP it somehow
gets confused and you have to reboot the system two or thee times
before things get straightened out. System appears stable now.
BTW, XP Pro is on an IBM Thinkpad laptop and I tried installing SP2
when it fist came out and it crashed the laptop, had to use the
restore discs to start from scratch, thus my reluctance to install SP2
a second time.
