Try disabling the mirrorlist and enabling the baseurl. Do the same for
fedora-updates.repo.

yes, that worked. Thanks very much, I'll figure out the mirrors next.

If that works go to
http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/11/ and find a
mirror that is close to you geographically. Add the mirror as the
primary repo or use it in place of http://download.fedoraproject.org .
E.g.

 $ cat fedora.repo
[fedora]
name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch
failovermethod=priority
baseurl=http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/
http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/ # mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-$releasever&arch=$basearch
enabled=1
metadata_expire=7d
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-$basearch
