Internet can't be connected - “Disconnected - you are now offline”
I am a very new user of Ubuntu and booted my Lenovo 3000 n500 laptop with Ubuntu 14.04.4. Every time it's displaying "disconnected - you are offline". But the same file is used for my friend's PC and that is flawless.

What're you trying to do? Are you trying to access some shared file? Does the disconnect happen on its own, or when you're doing something? What connection method are you using?

So, did you create the WiFi connection with NetworkManager? What happens when you try to activate it?

Enter in terminal ifconfig | grep wlan. If it wouldn't print anything, then you most probably need to install WiFi drivers. Search in the system settings for something like «Additional drivers». Or you can enter in terminal sudo ubuntu-drivers devices, it would list devices which needs (or may need — as in the case of GPU, which would have drivers in use, but may also have alternative ones) drivers, and the drivers package names after the words drivers: .
