update says im not connected to the internet [Resolved]

hi everyone. im new to the forum & need a little help. i have been using CPF for a while now without any problems. but since yesterday when i try to update the firewall it says im not connected to the internet even tho i am. only thing i did yesterday was install EI7. IS there a way to fix this problem. thanks for ant help…

Open IE (this worked in 6) then goto Tools->Internet Options->Connections and make sure “Automatically detect settings” is checked.

hi ryland thanks for you’r reply… that seams to have fixed it. i noticed my broadband connection had gone missing in the connections tab to so i added it again. thank you again for you’r advice…
