source: http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2014/06/19/psa-fedora-21-networkmanager-and-dnf/ The"... core of NetworkManager smaller and more flexible by splitting out Wi-Fi support into the NetworkManager-wifi package. If you don’t have or don’t use Wi-Fi on your system, you don’t need to install stuff for it and you can save some disk space and RAM. If you suddenly find yourself without Wi-Fi, find a wired network connection and:" dnf install NetworkManager-wifi systemctl restart NetworkManager

yum is depreciated in f22 to dnf
YUM(8)                               DNF                               YUM(8) NAME yum - /usr/bin/yum to /usr/bin/dnf redirecting executable

YUM executable is now powered by DNF. If you are sure you really want to use YUM, it is still available as yum-deprecated.
