Title:
  Message for lack of Internet connection is unhelpful

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  update-manager 1:0.156.14.5, Ubuntu 12.04

  1. Launch Update Manager.
  2. Disconnect from the Internet.

  What you see: "You may not be able to check for updates or download
  new updates."

  What you should see: Something that gives you more of a hint how to
  fix the problem.

  It's great that the message appears only when you lose your Internet
  connection, and disappears when you regain it. But it could give you
  more advice.
