At first glance of your original post, it did look like you were connected. But I didn't study it hard to see if there was something important missing. The status of network icon will be derived from what NetworkManager says about the interface. If NetworkManager didn't start it, it will show it as being inactive, even if something else has brought your network up. It shows the status of NetworkManager, not the status of your network (directly). If you're not using NetworkManager, then you'd want to configure your interfaces as not being managed by NetworkManager. That way NetworkManager doesn't confuse other things. > Boy am I puzzeled !!!
