Welcome to Ultimate Edition!!
Could you please provide some information about your problem:
1. Can you get to any website via the Browser?
2. If not, can you ping any domain names from the Terminal or Command line (Applications>Accessories>Terminal), ie..

Code: Select all

ping cnet.com

and get a reply that looks like the picture below:

Look at the terminal window on the lower right for an example of a ping command and the desired results. Also note the box on the upper right, it is a shot of my current Ethernet config and settings.

Your numbers will vary in the Ethernet config, but should look similar to what you see in mine.
FYI: I just browsed to

Code: Select all

http://thepiratebay.org

without any problems.

Could you please provide the information about your current Ethernet configuration? You can view that information by "Right-clicking" on the Network Icon located on the upper "bar", and usually near the right edge of the screen.

Also, could you please provide some specific information about the system you are running Ultimate Edition on? See my signature below for an example of the type of info being requested. This info will help the Admins and Mods here to give more specific assistance and address any hardware issues more accurately.

when you say uploading, as in you are going to seed the software?

just needed the verification on that.

if you want to download the ISO file, then softpedia and source forge are good candidates.
