AFAIR I never changed the mirror settings after install from DVD.
The lines in CentOS-Base.repo look like

[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os
#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/

So baseurl is commented out. But changing this does not help.

I can't see anything useful:
