Public bug reported:

I have network shares that mount via cifs in fstab. When my wireless is
connected to the network, I have no issues. When my wireless connects to
another network where those network shares are not located, I get system
freezes (mostly) or application freezes (occasionally). The freezes
normally occur when opening files located on my computer (LOCAL FILES)
such as libre office, pdfs, or pictures. It also likes to occur on save.
It does not happen using thunderbird or firefox unless I open a file or
try to save. Another time I was running a script and the script would
hang when trying to write to a log file on my computer.

When the system freezes, I have mouse movement and normally do not have
keyboard or mouse click response. I have not seen anything reported in
any log files. The system sometimes responds for a few seconds every 4
minutes.

When the system or application is frozen, unmounting those network
shares or switching network connection to the connection those shares
are on immediately unfreezes they system.  A switch away from the
mounted shares network or mounting those shares freezes the system
again.

The freezing does not happen all the time in the above situation, but
when it does happen, it is consitent and reproducable by switching
networks or mounting/unmounting shares.
