I have tried a number of times to install the rpmfusion repos but I keep 
getting this error.

Here is were I ran dig, nslookup, and ping, and appears that I'm having 
problems of getting through my router.
If I run Firefox I have no problems getting through the router Gateway 
172.16.0.1 , resolv.conf  172.16.0.1  .
I 'am running a FC 8 box on this same router AT&T (2Wire783) and I'm 
having the same problem.
Even if I pin yahoo.com I get the same error.
Yum doesn't have any problems of updating through this router.
What in my router could be causing this problem ?
