Have you tried nm-applet from Gnome fallback just to check if the same
happens?
If it works on Gnome fallback, you may use the old nm-applet from GNOME 3's
fallback mode on GNOME Shell by running the following command as root:
# mv /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/status/network.js
/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/status/network.disabled
and then logout and login.
You may need to re-run this command after a GNOME Shell upgrade.
NOTE: nm-applet does not integrate well with GNOME Shell experience.
