Apple used two different configurations across two different logic boards. I don't fully understand why they did this.
The gloss screen uses the combo Bluetooth/WiFi AirPort board that sits within the clutch cover. The Anti-glare models uses a separate BlueTooth module that sits at the hinge screws on the left. And uses the same combo board without using the bluetooth services it offers!

Before you replace the board check the logic board connection and see if the cable routing is correct. Look around the hinge area as the cable can get damaged there.
It does get confusing ;-}
