Hey

I did a minimal centos7 install but it seems that yum update isn't working
I tried:

ping http://mirrorlist.centos.org

result:

I tried pinging to google etc and that all works.
any suggestions?

I would suggest posting the entire yum update output. "yum update isn't working" does not tell much.

Are you using a proxy ? If so add the following into your "/etc/yum.conf" /replace hostname/ip and port with yours/:

proxy=http://some_hostname_or_ip:some_port
