In Control Panel you are not looking for icons. You are looking for the words Network Connections. Double click on those words that say's Network Connections and select the Local Area Connection in there by right clicking on it and selecting Properties and then when it opens and on the General Tab on the bottom you will see 2 lines with a checkbox in front of them and then put a checkmark into those 2 boxes and hit the OK button and close out

I have try many time uninstalal the nic dirver but the LAN icon still not
appear

Please help.


Click Start Control Panel Network Connections Locate the Internet
Connection you want and Right click it and select properties.
On the Connection Properties look down and you will find two check boxes,
please check them:
[ ] Show Icon in Notification Area when Connected
[ ] Notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity


Another; Right click the Start Button and select Properties then on the
taskbar and Start Menu Properties Under Taskbar Tab click on Customize
Button
opposite this:
[ ] Hide inactive icons [ Customize...]
There Highlight the Local Area Network Icon and select from the drop down
list Always Show.

Or try and make sure th UPnP service is started in the services control
panel:
Open a run command and type in:
services.msc click [OK] locate the UPnP and start it Auto.
Reboot your machine.

HTH.
