First wireless is not a requirement, I do not use wireless anywhere for PCs as
wired connection is in all aspects (except for the wire) better.

Second Fedora has more strict Free software policy:

Since that time everything works out of the box.  Low-end Free software
friendly card is really not such a financial burden.  The same can be applied
to WiFi USB - when one was unfortunate to buy/get Free software hostile
hardware in the first place.
