In Virtual Machine you can not use WiFi. I think this is for safty reason but I an not sure. If you realy want to have WiFi in VM there is possibility to connect external wifi card to VM.

Now..if you installed Ubuntu 16.04 as dual boot next to Win 8.1 and there is still no wifi than thare is also a problem with ubuntu not detecting your wifi card on that laptop.
