Wake on LAN not working on Ubuntu 16.04
I'm trying to setup wake on LAN on my desktop which has Ubuntu 16.04 running.
I've tried a lot, following different manuals and troubleshooting, but with no luck.
When the computer is off or on suspend, one orange light is on the network card, occasionally slightly flickering. I need to resume or turn on computer via LAN if it is suspended or turned off respectively.
I believe I have wake on LAN enabled in the BIOS.
Some outputs that I think might be relevant,
$ sudo ethtool enp2s0 | grep Wake
Supports Wake-on: pumbg
Wake-on: g
$ sudo ethtool -i enp2s0 | grep bus
bus-info: 0000:02:00.0
$ cat /proc/acpi/wakeup | grep 0000:02:00.0
PXSX S4 *enabled pci:0000:02:00.0
$ lspci | grep Ethernet
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 0c)
$ cat /etc/default/halt
# Default behaviour of shutdown -h / halt. Set to "halt" or "poweroff".
HALT=poweroff
NETDOWN=no
$ sudo tcpdump -i enp2s0 '(udp and port 7) or (udp and port 9)'
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on enp2s0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes
15:31:38.121365 IP <ip>.51603 > <broadcast_ip>.discard: UDP, length 102
I even tried the r8168 driver with no luck.
I'm sending WOL signal with the following command
$ wakeonlan -i <broadcast_ip> <mac_addr>
Any ideas?

Does thetcpdumpoutput show that your network is allowing the packet to reach your system?

Make sure you have it enabled in BIOS, because it is a pre-requisite of WoL working.
Wake-on: g
Magic packet setting must be persistent. If it is not after power cycle, you might want to try setting in the following file:
/etc/netctl/profile
as follows:
ExecUpPost='/usr/bin/ethtool -s interface wol g'
