Linux Mint WiFi not working

Hi Experts,

I have been given a Sony Vaio with Linux Mint installed and I can not get the WiFi to work. When I click the connection icon in the bottom right I am given the option to turn the Wireless on but when I do it goes back to off. I have been informed by the previous owner that the WiFi has worked in the past.
