IPhone 5 skips the wifi set up when setting up from new

My iPhone 5 skips setting up WiFi when setting up from new. I restored my iPhone because since I have owned it WiFi has not worked so I decided to do a restore to get it to go through the setup process but it skips it. Does this mean that the WiFi chip is faulty?

Resolution
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Restart your iOS device.
Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, see how to resolve those Wi-Fi issues.
It sound like you have already tried all of these steps, so you may need to contact Apple for support and service options.
