I upgraded my Ubuntu 12.04 a few weeks ago. Now it couldn't update anymore and says that:


Failed to download repository information Check your Internet connection

I would appreciate it very much if anyone could help !

Open a terminal (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal#Starting_a_Terminal) and enter:

sudo apt-get update

And you should be good to go

This looks like a problem with either your internet connection or the dk.archive.ubuntu.com site.

Try switching to a different mirror, you can do this from the Update Manager.

I have the same errors after switching to the main Server.
My Ububtu can not detect the wireless connection. I can't browse any page using Firefox either.
