Ok.
Do you have a connection such as broadband?
It seems your first problem is getting connected to the internet.
I think you need to setup a wired link to your router first with DHCP
enable and see what happens.
There are no security settings so you should just connect.  From there
we can proceed with the other problems.

Let the updater update everything.
