If I take my laptop from one room to the other which leads to switching the access point the elementary os (latest) freezes. The only way out is to cut out the power and restart. I am using HP Pro Book.

This same issue happens to me from time to time, both when moving my laptop (automatic switch) or when changing WiFi network manually. It appears to be completely random though, WiFi switches without issues most of the time .
