Cannot connect to repo with TortoiseSVN

You need to determine whether this is a problem with TortoiseSVN, your Subversion repository, or your network connection.

First of all, check your URL. I never used User-Friendly SVN, so I don't know what it does to the Apache httpd configuration. However, the standard Apache configuration for multiple repositories is usually http://<server>/svn/<module> and not http://<server>/svn/usvn/<module>. Is that /usvn/ directory suppose to be there?
- By the way, how was Apache configured? Does User-Friendly SVN do that too, or does it merely allow you to configure the repositories? Are you using Visual-SVN, or did someone manually configure Apache httpd?
If the URL is correct, try pinging your Subversion server. Can you ping it from your Windows box? If not, you have a network issue. For some reason that IP address isn't even reachable from your client box.
Try opening a browser, and putting the URL of the Subversion repository into the window. This should work. If it does, the issue is probably with TortoiseSVN. Download a command line Subversion client, and see if you can checkout with that.
Try using the same URL on another box. Can you checkout from there? If so, it points to a problem with the network.

Try clearing the settings under "Saved Data" - refer to:

This worked for me with Windows 7.

I've found that replacing the first part of the URL with IP address numbers instead of words worked for me.

For example use:

http://111.11.11.111/svn/Directory

instead of:

http://www.url.com/svn/Directory
