How do you undo a yum update? Help Please

How do you undo the YUM updates?
I need to revert my computer back to the position it was before in order to connect properly to the internet ( I am stuck on a windows computer). Please make the instructions clear because I am a somewhat a begginer at Linux.
Thanks

What's wrong with your Internet connection now? What did you update to cause this?

Well, right now I can not connect to the web on my linux computer right now. I also do not know which update eliminated the internet capabilities, because I did a full update of my computer using yum. I know the ethernet card is working because the lights on it are blinking green, so I think a driver may have been screwed up.

You cant rollback updates.... if in your latest updates there is a kernel upgrade what you may do is re-start you pc and use your previous kernel.
