1. Turned off my rc.local line of `/sbin/ethtool -s enp5s0 wol g`
2. Powered off, did my "power drain" thing.
3. Booted, finding it working fine (as before).
4. Checked Wake on LAN and it was still on, hmmm...
5. Realized that it was being set by NetworkManager, the rc.local was only 
needed when
   I was using network *without* NetworkManager.
6. Set NetworkManager setting to off/default. Verified with `ethtool`.
7. Reboot. Still seeing the issue.

P.S. I found a Belkin cable for $3.99. I like that name better, so ordered it.
Belkin 3-Foot CAT5e Crossover Molded Networking Cable (Yellow)

It seems worth the test and worth having such a cable.
