Who I have the same questioned this topic

Go to Settings > About Device. Do you see a Wi-Fi MAC address appearing? It may appear under Status in "About Device" if you don't see it at this screen.

If you don't have a Wi-Fi MAC address, the Wi-Fi radio has a chance that it is dead. The only way to know for sure if it's software or hardware, though, is to back up the phone and give it a factory reset.
