You could try resetting all your network settings and see if that works.
If not and it has been dropped the WiFi board that connects to the iPad may have come loose. You would have to get into the iPad to check this. If it hasn't come loose you could try replacing the WiFi board.
Step 11 on the iFixit teardown shows you where the WiFi board is located. iPad 2 Wi-Fi EMC 2415 Teardown

Go in to settings - general - about and then scroll down to where it says wifi address. If this says not connected, then indeed you have a problem with the wifi chip not being properly connected to the board as James says above. This either needs the solder re flowing, or the chip replacing
