    unable to connect to internet on 14.04

    My laptop shows that it's connected to both ethernet connection, and WiFi. However, I can't go to any website. Chrome says "The site cannot be reached".

    Hi, welcome to the fora.

    First of all, is this a new install? If it is then you will save yourself trouble later by installing 16.04.

    No this isn't a new install. I've been using this machine for the last 1.5 years.

    If it's running Ubuntu 14.04 it's fine but all the other Buntus should be erased in order to install a supported version.

    Please run
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    and post the results in CODE tags.

    I can't connect to the internet. Hence it's giving tons of error messages.

    Also using wired internet connection?
    Do you see lights in the LED's next to the internet connector?

    I don't have LEDs next to the ethernet connector. And no, even a wired connection is not working.
