Description deadlydud 2016-12-19 09:03:50 UTC

Discover says cannot update no network connection, yet if I open bash I can
do sudo apt-get upgrade without problem.

Discover probably relying on knetworkmanager but system is configured with static network without knetworkmanager

Created attachment 102873 [details]
test file

Discover uses PackageKit, that relies in GNetworkMonitor. The test attached will tell you whether it detects the internet connection to be present and whether it actually can find kde.org.

Please report the output of this little program to figure out how to proceed on your issue.
