I have been testing out connman, the alternative connection manager. While testing connman, I had to remove my network manager. I did an

apt-get purge network-manager*

Now, when I reinstalled the network manager and all its dependencies, including network-manager-gnome, I cannot see it on the panel however, the internet is connected through ethernet. I can access the internet on the browser and also connect vpnc through the cli. but the GUI does not recognize it. Any idea how to get the GUI recognize the eth0?

Adding screenshot for better understanding. enter image description here

Try to do as this answer suggests.

Long answer short, open /etc/network/interfaces in a text editor, sudo mode, and comment out the eth0 and whatever network interfaces you want to control on network-manager.

I had the same issue, and this resolved it. If you have the package connman installed, try removing it, and rebooting.
