          @undrwater Please don't hijack a topic - start a new topic. You're running a Raspberry Pi2 - which doesn't have built in wifi btw. So you need a dongle.

          To help us help you - please make sure you read the sticky topics before posting - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

            Wow. Talk about assumptions. I would have sworn I was using the Pi 3. Thanks for the heads up!

                  Doesn't seem to be anything Wi-Fi related (Bluetooth included). Maybe they're blocked ? Can you run

                  sudo rfkill list all
                  

                  and post the output ? Does it detect any Wifi interfaces ?
                  Did you disable the Wifi/Bt via config.txt on your Pi ?

                            It's most likely a hardware failure.
                            Just to be sure there's nothing disabled, post your config.txt.

                              @mitu Please see these links. My Pi is not easy accessible, Its built in in a cabinet.

                              config.txt

                                The config.txt is ok - Wi-Fi is not disabled, so I'm afraid it might be a hardware problem.
