I have a DELL laptop and I have upgraded Ubuntu on this machine without issue until now. I have tried several times to upgrade from 18.04 to 18.10 and I've tried some of the recommendations on this site to try and get it installed, but it always fails. I tried from Terminal and got more detail on the attempted upgrade when it failed which I have pasted below. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong or could do to fix this? Thanks.

Sorry for late reply. Yep, internet is up and running each time I try. Just tried again this morning with same result.

hi, are you using a proxy? because if you read the return, it clearly shows it has to do with your internet connection e.g.
Fetched 0 B in 0s (0 B/s)
, please also tell us, what command you were running.– db429

What recommendations did you try? Are you using a proxy, VPN, or corporate/university network? Please edit to add.
