What disk image are you using? I believe all the images, definitely the minimal, as I use it regularly, have the required plugins and you can use the client to configure it.

Thanks for your reply. So, maybe it is the Fedora-Server-armhfp-26 image that doesn't include NetworkManager-wifi plugin, that lead me to "Error: No Wi-Fi device found." issuing the "nmcli device wifi rescan" command. In fact:
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa |grep Network NetworkManager-1.8.0-0.2.rc2.fc26.armv7hl NetworkManager-team-1.8.0-0.2.rc2.fc26.armv7hl NetworkManager-libnm-1.8.0-0.2.rc2.fc26.armv7hl
Even if
[root@localhost ~]# iwconfig ... wlan0 IEEE 802.11 ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:on
I will try minimal image. Anyway my question is still valid. Is it a simple task to add packages before inserting the SD card in the raspberry? Or it requires a lot of work and skills I don't have?
Thanks A.
