      @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.

        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.

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