Following these instructions , I found that phy0 on my desktop should support wake on wlan and turned it on.
[root@Arch alex]# iw phy0 wowlan show
WoWLAN is enabled:
 * wake up on magic packet
However, when I suspend the system and try to wake it up from a distance, it doesn't work:
[alex@Archlaptop tmp]$ wol 44:E5:17:ED:9E:D2r
Waking up 44:E5:17:ED:9E:D2r...
And nothing happens. Furhermore, if I follow the Arch wiki , I don't get wake-on-wlan:
[root@Arch alex]# ethtool wlo1
Settings for wlo1:
        Link detected: yes
What is going on?
