My guess is that iw7260-firmware is what you'd need for the 7260. I
recommend searching for this, e.g., "fedora 7260" and as many
reasonable permutations as you can think of. Other Linux users have
surely experienced similar difficulties. If not, you know something's
probably wrong on your end. You might also test the wi-fi on baremetal
Fedora to see if it's a Qubes-specific problem.

Yes, you can download the packages with dnf in a different OS (e.g.,
baremetal Fedora), then transfer them (e.g., with a USB drive) to your
Qubes machine, then install them locally. The process is explained in
this thread:
