It's impossible to give a definitive answer without knowing the details 
of your board, but in general:

1. If you have a custom board, you may need a custom DTS that correctly 
describes your board (instead of the default one) for all hardware to be 
detected correctly.

2. Make sure the kernel drivers for any additional hardware are enabled 
in the kernel config you use.

3. The defconfigs are intentionally minimal. You'll need to add the 
target packages to support what you want to do with wifi and BT:

* any firmware needed for the devices on your board
* wpa_supplicant or iwd or hostapd, maybe NetworkManager too (depending 
on how you want to use wifi)
* bluez5-utils (probably) for BT

Some of those packages have optional components that you may or may not 
need.

Best regards,
Fiona
