It could be that your interface is down.
ifconfig eth0 up
Eth0 is an interface name to get the list of your visible interface type in "ifconfig"
also you should provide us with the list of interface and possibly also hardware
dmesg
will display the full list of device on your laptop.
Also to be noted some of these command requires root / sudoer.
