It seems today update I lost wifi support, that i used yesterday without problems

What is the device including chipset and how is it connected?

 03:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)



today kernel: 4.16.10-300.fc28.x86_64

yesterday kernel: kernel-4.16.8-300.fc28.x86_64

Try booting with the previous kernel and see if that changes anything.


Actually it seems I solved, or better, for some reason the wifi was disconnected, but from a sw point of view, not with the buttons combination, that are Fn+F2 in my case.
See below
 

other possible related packages:
   NetworkManager-openvpn.x86_64 1:1.8.4-1.fc28
   NetworkManager-openvpn-gnome.x86_64 1:1.8.4-1.fc28

Were there any other NetworkManager or Gnome packages updated?

No it seems not 

I was in a directory named "firmware" (/lib/firmware) because I was verifying my version of microcode, preparing to update with latest one released by Intel, not related.

What I found is that I didn't noticed in control manager of Gnome, in settings --> Wi-Fi I had in top right of the bar, here the image

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l8CCL0tm_KGhDig7ypuxI_UGpyTHv7iS/view?usp=sharing

switched to off... I don't know why. I switched to On and all went good

I have a suspect. I was already connected to cable lan and I wanted to connect also to wifi (something I'm often doing to open a VPN through the wifi connection).
One possibility is that in new release if you are already connected through cable lan, wifi becomes disabled... I have to verify
Or it was only a mis-typing at my side...
Now after booting today, I'm using wifi without problems but I have not my lan cable connected
