Workaround:

Before going to bed, open a terminal and "killall -9 nm-applet" (your computer will stay connected to the network)
When you next need to switch networks: "nm-applet &"

If I leave my computer idling for more than 24 hours, it gets so unresponsive I can't even open a terminal to resuscitate it.
