While I can set wol for this interface, the setting does not

This system is not dual-boot. Is this a quirk of the 8168? Do I need to
look for jumpers?
As far as I can tell from my attempts on setting WOL on linux
the NIC driver resets the WOL flag on system start
I think I saw the same in the OBSD code.
windows drivers also do the same, so I am guessing it's normal.
just reactivate the WOL flag in rc.local.
finally even though it did not work out for me. ( my nics were nfe(4)
which has no WOL bits in OBSD, I blame nvidia, those secretive assholes.)
I do love the ifconfig based wol syntax, miles ahead of the linux bullshit
