16.04 - How to mount a samba share at login

I need to mount a smb share in my laptop. I added it in fstab, but it doesn't seem to be mounting at boot. I need to type mount -a manually to mount it. I think it is because the laptop is not getting connected to the network when its booted. I tried to add a cron to mount it 1 minute after reboot, but it is also not working.

OS: ubuntu 16.04
