That's very possible. Fedora has drivers for some wireless cards and not for 
others, and even if there is a driver you probably need to tell Fedora to 
connect to the access point.

Do you have any way of plugging in a network cable? Wired networking is much 
more likely to work out of the box. Then use that until you get your graphics 
working, so you'll have a nice GUI environment to work in when trying to get 
wireless to work.

You could also download the graphics driver manually in Windows and then 
reboot to Fedora and pick the files up from the Windows partition. That may 
be tedious however, as you may have to go back to Windows several times to 
download more packages that the driver package depends on.
