Hi,

It's a problem with the mirror you are using (209.132.176.122), it
seems to be bogus or out of sync:

I am getting mirror 209.132.176.120 (and some others), which seems to
be working OK:

I see you also tried to access the IP directly (wget
http://66.35.62.166/mirrorlist) but that does not work probably
because the server uses virtual hosts and the default virtual host is
probably not the one you want. It's possible to work around that by
using --header 'Host: mirrors.fedoraproject.org' in the wget command
line.

For example, the same host I used above:

> $ wget --header 'Host: mirrors.fedoraproject.org' http://209.132.176.120/metalink
> --12:56:07--  http://209.132.176.120/metalink

And the one you are using:

> --12:56:12--  http://209.132.176.122/metalink

To work around this issue, I suggest you add a line with
"209.132.176.122 mirrors.fedoraproject.org" to your /etc/hosts, and
also contact the Fedora project to inform them that this specific
mirror is bad... You might also try to flush your DNS cache to see if
you get a new IP for that domain.

HTH,
Filipe
