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.
Thanks
