Or try executing 
sudo rfkill list all
and make sure that wifi soft and hardblocking is set to no. If rfkill is not installed install it first. Also notice you need a firmware for your card to work. So plug in your ethernet and fire up jockey-gtk alias hardware drivers to see if it needs to download it.

Make sure its not something simple like a wifi switch on the laptop.


Check your fn keys as well as looking for a switch.
