My Latitude E7240 running Ubuntu 18.10 has Wireless Wake On Lan capability and the option is enabled in the BIOS.

While the Wake On Lan is working like a charm with ethtool, the Wireless variant gives me problems.

With iw dev the wireless shows up as phy0.

If I enable the WoWLan with sudo iw phy0 wowlan enable magic-packet
and check it with iw phy0 wowlan show it states: 'WoWLAN is enabled'.

However, after rebooting my PC and checking iw phy0 wowlan show it states: 'WoWLAN is disabled'.

So my question is: How to keep the WoWLAN enabled.

Create a file: /etc/rc.local

#!/bin/sh

iw phy0 wowlan enable magic-packet

exit 0

Save the file and make it executable with this command:

sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.local

Reboot and test WoWLAN

Thanks, the WoWLAN works now after reboot. The PC wakes up while in Sleep, Suspend and hibernate when the magic package is sent. Still the PC doesn't start when turned off.
