I imagine if you truly did a distro-sync vs a fresh install 
then there might be issues with networking in general from 
that far back 19->34. Yum is deprecated and points to dnf. 
If you use resolve.conf to configure network connections it 
is nolonger being recognized. You will have to setup your 
connections through NetworkManager or it's client 
application. I installed F34 and had no problem with ssh to 
local machines over wifi. There are some posts on the fedora 
forum regarding the networking changes but you'll have to 
search as it was about a year ago.
