Peter de Kraker, thank you for performing the requested test and the follow up information. I briefly scanned acer-wmi and didn't see anything patently obvious code wise as to why this would occur with a non-OEM provided WiFi chip (although I'm not terribly familiar with it). Cursorily, the BIOS may have something hardcoded that depends on the original OEM hardware, which would make sense here. Despite this, what could be expected if it's not a BIOS bug, is a quirk of some sort that minimizes or eliminates the 10 second delay.

Hence, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one. Could you please report this problem through the appropriate channel (I would start with platform-driver-x86 and CC "Lee, Chun-Yi" <email address hidden>) by following the instructions _verbatim_ at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel#KernelTeam.2BAC8-KernelTeamBugPolicies.Overview_on_Reporting_Bugs_Upstream ?

Please provide a direct URL to your post once you have made it so that it may be tracked.

Thank you for your understanding.
