You should at least provide a wlan card name or its manufacturer and model, and some steps you took for it to work before posting here. Maybe someone will answer then...
You been through arch wiki about this?

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
No really, we can't do anything with what you are telling us. So wireless doesn't seem to work. Why not? Where does it go wrong? Does it not find your access point? It cannot connect? Something else?
Check if the appropriate driver is loading and see if "ifconfig" shows you anything else besides interfaces lo and eth0.

thanks! I'm very sorry because my english is poor,all things seems very OK,such as lspci,lsmod,ifconfig,iwconfig
only the wireless card light off,i have turned off the switch
but,when i turned the switch on,the state of the wireless card light can not change
so the wireless card can't work
i have solved this problem.
$sudo echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/hp-wmi/rfkill/rfkill0/state

The rfkill tool in [core] is a useful, cross-hardware way to manage this. I find that sometimes after turning off/on my wifi card, I also need to:
modprobe -r my_wifi_driver
modprobe my_wifi_driver
But you say you've solved your problem. Cool.
