You seem to be in good shape. Try installing something. If you install method will not work, try this in terminal:

sudo apt-get install NAMEofPACKAGE

And replace name of package with package name.

Actually there's nothing wrong with apt-get it works just fine.
Problem with software center. It says that i have no internet connection so i cant install anything from there though i have active internet connection.

Ashfaqur Rahman;

Well, seems that the problem is particular to the Software Center. Might try (re-)configuring it.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure software-center

Else; consider (re-)installing the software center application ?

just my thought

I'm currently getting the same in the software-updater on the two boxes Im running 13.04 in.
apt-get update working ok
Software updater states to check my internet connection which is on wifi, no problems there..desktop box gives me the same thing and it's cabled to internet.

You can also try opening it in terminal and see if you get any errors.
