While at home I map my MacBook to a couple SMB shares from a NAS device I have. The NAS device is hardwired, as well as my MacBook. Everything works fine, performance is great. However, when I close my MacBook and re-open it outside my home, Finder hangs as it can't connect to the SMB share. I would of thought that there'd be a timeout setting, but nope. Without fail, each and EVERY SINGLE TIME. Finder completely hangs and nothing works to get it back except a complete reboot. If I close and reopen my MacBook still inside my home, it hangs but opens up again once the network is re-established. Pretty mind boggling that Finder will consistently hang based of off my network connectivity. Anyone experience this or have a fix for it? Seems to also happen when switching from wired to wireless (on the same network).


MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4), 2.7/16/768
