update F17

I managed to get F17 installed. On reboot I ran yum update. I get this message.

Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: updates. Please verify its path and try again
[pedro@pedro-bedro ~]$

Anyone know the path I need to set? And where?

Re: update F17

Your internet connection is working without a proxy?

Did you try again later? Sometimes the server has some issues.

Code:
less /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo

Got it working in the end. I installed some packages individually, then let yum run update again. This time it seems to be working.
