Consider this tool as an alternative,
in difficult times when GTK+ bug hits nm-applet:
http://wicd.sourceforge.net
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/wicd
wicd.service / Wicd a wireless and wired network manager for Linux
wicd-gtk / Wicd Network Manager
wicd-gtk --tray / Wicd Network Manager Tray (autostart - xfce4-session-settings)
