Everything depends on the mirror each repo is using. Do a

Code:

yum clean all && yum update

It's not trying to download packages from here http://mirror.isoc.org.il/ Is it?

I also find yum in F17 generally very slow. Much slower than in F16. Seems to hang for several minutes updating. This is on a clean install of F17. Using a DSL connection that is fast otherwise.

I experienced the same issue yesterday using Software Installer (right-click on rpm file) to install the latest version of Opera (version 12.00) that I had already downloaded from Opera's ftp site. Very weird.
