Running Xubuntu, the network icon is missing and can't get it back

For the life of me I can't get that network icon back. I have restarted the X server, ran "nm-applet" and restarted NetworkManager. Any ideas? I can provide output for commands if needed.

Right click on the panel and select Panel -> Panel Preferences

Then choose the Items tab and go down and double click on the Status Notifier Plugin

Then in the Status Notifier Items for the Known Items block, scroll down and make sure that the Network Manager Applet hidden check box is not selected. If it is, unselect it.

I recommend a reboot after unselecting it.
