Arend, Thank You.

I was able to disable NetworkManager and wpa_supplicant and then
restarted the supplicant manually. The system did not disconnect when
suspended, but it would not wake up on magic packet (what I set it to).
On resume it again disconnected and reconnected however.

I put a WOW compatible NIC in my laptop and will do some more
testing. I also need to verify that the wake packets are making it
onto the air.

Thank you for all your help.
