I got a similar misleading error message:

The package download failed.
Please check your network connectivity.

When the problem was:

Err http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty/main kdebase-workspace-dbg 
4:4.3.1-0ubuntu1~jaunty1~ppa6
  404 Not Found
Err http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty/main kdebase-workspace-libs4+5 
4:4.3.1-0ubuntu1~jaunty1~ppa6
  404 Not Found

This is certainly not a "network connectivity" problem.
