I clicked on the WiFi Network symbol in Applications to many times and I now have 8 Network connection icons in my menu bar. I didn't realize till to late that it was adding them to the menu bar. I was clicking and waiting for an app to open and when it didn't I clicked again. Is there a way to get it back to 1 icon ?

Describe please what do you click. What is "Applications"? You can make a screenshot and post a link to your question. – Pilot6 Jun 22 '15 at 16:17

You can remove all duplicates of the connection icons by killing the nm-applet process, like this:
$ sudo killall nm-applet
Then start a new one with:
$ sudo nm-applet &
