Yes, this happens to me a lot.  I _think_ it's my ISP (Comcast may the
rot for all eternity) caching files various files (probably the
repo.xml files) so that the checksums don't match.  My solution is to
VPN into work and then everything magically works.  If you have a way
to get around your ISP's network, try it out and see what happens.
There are other tricks to get around the caching such as going through
an http proxy server, which I have not tried with yum, but I'm pretty
sure you can do it..  Good luck,
-Jason
