If NetworkManager stops your network stops, period.  Firefox, Evolution
and Empathy for sure depend on it and eventually everything will.  You
can frob an undocumented option on Firefox's about:config screen but no
known fix exists for the others.

Solution: Troubleshoot your NetworkManager problem.  It isn't optional
anymore.  Whether that is wise is a question best left to the
philosophers.
