I am on Fedora 26 and I cannot replicate your bug. I usually update my software
using the Software Updates applets, or via dnf. On my installation the applet,
discover, and dnf are all synchronized and there are no updates duplicates.
Regarding the updates over 4g, right clicking on the updates applet, you can
access some options regarding how often an in which conditions the updates will
be retrieved.
