Install Wifi drivers and needed packages by :
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev linux-headers-`uname -r` linux-firmware-nonfree wicd wicd-gtk wicd-daemon wicd-cli wicd-curses
Install bluetooth drivers and packages by:
sudo apt-get install bluez bluez-alsa bluez-audio bluez-btsco bluez-compat bluez-cups bluez-dbg bluez-gstreamer bluez-hcidump bluez-pcmcia-support bluez-tools bluez-utils python-bluez bluewho indicator-bluetooth libbluetooth-dev libgnome-bluetooth11 libbluetooth3 python-gobject python-dbus
