If you're saying you started on Gnome, then dropped in another DE, you need to switch to an agnostic network manager if you were relying on Gnome's Desktop Network manager implementation probably.
If you're saying you booted a clean Fedora Cosmic LiveUSB and couldn't get WiFi working, you need to look at logs or run through some cli debugging to see what's up. Probably just Cosmic issues.
Edit: forgot about [nmtui](https://www.networkmanager.dev/docs/api/latest/nmtui.html). You can use this to debug issues from the clinpretty simply if the desktop tools are failing.

Nah just to be clear, I tried to dual boot Fedora Cosmic Atomic and later Fedora Cosmic with Fedora Workstation. Grub wasn't seeing my Fedora Workstation install anymore, so I don't think the Gnome network manager comes into account. But I might be way out of my league as there is so much I don't understand.
