]]>i've tried netcfg-tray and it works fine for me, i've tried a cable connection and my wifi open connection, but i think that it's missing an important feature: a wifi signal displayer that should displays the quality of wifi, so for example 40%, 100%
Try netcfgGUI, it does what you have requested plus a little more while still remaining light weight.

Many thanks neonnds, you make my day! ^^
I had the same problem. And indeed removing the .lease files solved the problem. The problem started after I used wlassistant.
After using wlassistant all of a sudden i could not connect with netcfg either.
thanx neonnds

]]>edit: I do have one thing changed, some versions of dhcpcd did not accept an IP when the server didn't give a 'ServerID' as required by the RFC. However this broke two crappy dhcp servers, so I commented out the "#require dhcp_server_identifier" option. This behaviour may have changed since that version though...
