      Can you run dmesg, taken after a cold boot, and post it on pastebin.com ?

          @Reignman Save it on the boot partition.

          dmesg | sudo tee  /boot/dmesg.txt
          

          Then take the sdcard out of the Pi and read the file from your PC.

              I'm running into the same issue. Here's a dmesg from fresh boot.

                @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.

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

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