        Actually the other answer is quite old and not up to date.
Please use the iw tool. 
To check whether it's supported: iw phy0 info
Check the status: iw phy0 wowlan show.
Activate several options: sudo iw phy0 wowlan enable magic-packet disconnect.
The kernel wiki has some information as well. If wake on wlan does not work from suspend mode try freeze mode: Close all applications, then sync && echo freeze | sudo tee /sys/power/state. This is not as low power, but less than a running system and nice to test whether the magic packets at get there and the driver interprets them.

Also, check if Your wireless card support WakeOnLan, and You must have kernel version >= 3.1
