I assume I'm seeing the same bug, except on Xubuntu 15.04. If I
configure a static IP for a connection to a wifi network using nm-
applet, the system freezes a few seconds later, requiring a hard reboot.
After rebooting, if the computer attempts to to connect to the same
network, it will freeze again unless I quickly disable networking via
nm-applet. Connecting using DHCP does not cause this problem.

Title:
  System freeze on switching to wireless network

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:    Ubuntu 15.04
  Release:        15.04

  
  This is a HP ProBook 6570b notebook.
  It freezes after logging in when connecting to WLAN.
  Occurs only when static IP configured.
  Doesn't occur when network-manager disabled (/etc/network/interfaces used)

  Reproduce:

  1. Configure WLAN static IP, DNS
  2. Reboot
  3. After login, (after the "you are connected to aa wifi network" message disappears) the system freeze

  Another case:

  1. Login with WLAN disabled by hardware switch
  2. Connect to ethernet network
  3. Configure WLAN static IP, DNS
  4. Turn on WLAN and connect to a network
  5. Now the system wont freeze as the primary network connection is the ethernet
  6. Unplug the ethernet cable 
  7. Some seconds later the system freeze

  
  Workaround:

  Turn off WLAN before login

  or

  Turn off  WLAN before unplug cable
  Then turn it on
