It's not picking up your internet connection.
Are you connected?
what's
give you?Code:ifconfig
form a command line you can also try
(it does the same thing as the 'Reload' button)Code:sudo apt-get update
and it'll print an error message to the console.
No, its picking up the Internet Connection. I can browse using Firefox.
Sorry. But what are these command lines and how to use them. I'm a complete noob.
Just checking.... but have you clicked the 'Refresh button' when that box comes up?
And to enter those commands go to Applications >> Accessories >> Terminal
