I'm not a Mythbuntu user, but on most Linux distros you need to make
sure the network card is left enabled for WOL at shutdown.

A few things to check:

Edit /etc/init.d/halt and look for:
> NETDOWN=yes
Change to:
> NETDOWN=no

Edit /etc/network/interfaces and add a line:
> pre-down ethtool -s eth0 wol g

Then reboot.

When the system is booted, type:
> sudo ethtool eth0

You should get output like:

> Settings for eth0:
> Supported ports: [ TP ]
> Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
> 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
> 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full
> Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
> Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
> 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
> 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full
> Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
> Speed: 1000Mb/s
> Duplex: Full
> Port: Twisted Pair
> PHYAD: 1
> Transceiver: internal
> Auto-negotiation: on
> Supports Wake-on: g
> Wake-on: g
> Current message level: 0x000000ff (255)
> Link detected: yes
> 

The "Wake-on:" line near the end is the important one. If it says
"Wake-on: d" then WOL is disabled so something above hasn't worked!

If it says "Wake-on: g" Try shutting down and see if WOL works now.

Good luck.
