As a workaround in Gnome 3, you can install/run gnconf-editor and navigate to apps/nm-applet and turn off disconnected notifications.
It's a bit of a kludge, as you won't get useful notifications (ie. when your network drops), but it's better than having to click the thing every time you open your laptop lid.
