> When you browse a repository in a web browser, only GET requests get sent. But when you use a real Subversion client, like TortoiseSVN, it uses other WebDAV methods, including OPTIONS. What you're seeing could be the result of a proxy that's not configured to pass WebDAV methods. Try disabling the use of the proxy, or if that's not possible, talk to your proxy administrator about supporting WebDAV methods.

I'm also thinking "proxy server". Your browser may have a proxy server
configured, but for use with any svn client (including TortoiseSVN),
you have to configure the proxy server in the client-side config file
(the file "servers" in %APPDATA%/Subversion). Or for TortoiseSVN: just
open the Settings, and go to "Network".
