I just installed Ubuntu on a virtual machine hosted by windows 10



It's been few hours that I am trying to find solution this problem:

  • My connection is working fine: (on Firefox)

  • When I use wget I get a status 200:

I found this simular question
sudo apt update always giving Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?) but there are only two answers:




  • One:It suggests that it's a network problem specific to my ISP. (How can I be sure? Then what can I do solve it)

  • Two: It's a proxy problem, so I make the following configuration


apt.conf



What should I replace <proxy> with?

          Replace <proxy> with your proxy address.



          For example, if your proxy server is 1.2.3.4 and the port is 1234 then the first line should be



          Acquire::http::proxy "http://1.2.3.4:123


          Use this for all other lines.
