Network Icon in Notification Area/System Tray

In Vista, there is only 1 network icon that appears in the Notification
Area/System Tray for all of your network connections. Is there any way to
have a seperate one for each of my connections (Ethernet, Wireless, Dial-up,
etc.)?

Re: Network Icon in Notification Area/System Tray

Why clutter up the Startup Notification Area? Why not just have the one
working showing?

Re: Network Icon in Notification Area/System Tray

So I can determine if I still have my Wireless connection running while I'm
plugged into an Ethernet port. Why have 2 connections open needlessly?
