Can't connect to Wi-Fi


Hi!

It's my first time on Linux so I'm having a bit of a trouble...
I have just installed Linux Mint 18 Mate on my ASUS Transformer Book Flip TP500LA and now I can't get connect to my Wi-Fi. It worked just fine before the installation on Win 10.

I can connect via cable but when I take it out it just say Ethernet Network Disconnected in the Network Manager.

I have tried to fix it via some other treads but still nothing.
Some info:
Output of iwconfig:
lo no wireless extensions.
enp2s0f1 no wireless extensions.

Output of lspci -nn | grep 0280:
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7630e 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter [14c3:7630]

I am in desperate need of help and would be eternally grateful!

Considering it was working before Windows install I'd say Windows is the culprit here.

Grobas, try running
Code:
rfkill list all

I had to reinstall Mint for it to work but now i finally have some wifi! Thank you so much!

Emerson, my bad! I meant that it worked on Win 10 before I installed Mint

Anyway, thank you both for taking the time!
