It probably depends how you're hibernating the machine - I'm not sure all
possible methods will use acpi.

It's ugly and incredibly hackish, but you might also invoke the script out
of /etc/network/if-up.d/ if you can usually expect a network connection to
be made as soon as you resume.  [ugh.  That's so ugly, my skin crawls, but
I've done worse when looking for a quick and dirty fix :-) ]
