Why do people find this so hard?  It was bloody obvious from the first
time I ever saw the Gnome desktop after log-in.  And barely different
from other releases of Gnome, as far back as Fedora 9, at least.

There's an icon of two computers networked together on the taskbar, it
represents your network.  Depending on whether you left-click or
right-click on it, you get different options.  Read them.
