I have to admit that I have been running out of ideas why the wiki cannot get a 
connection while "curl" can.

One last try: has the gateway connecting the local network to the internet an 
application firewall or the like ?
Something that sniffs user-agents for http connections and only allows "known 
ones" ?

The java client used by the XWiki installation wizard might be emulated with:

  curl --user-agent "history" http://extensions.xwiki.org

if this works, too, I have to admit I have no clue why it does not work.
(Btw, there should be an error message in the log files. Is there anything like 
that?)
