Still a work in progress in my opinion.
HOWEVER I've seen this after folk install antivirus suites. Maybe?

Hello All,
Today I noticed that none of my Windows 8 modern-UI apps were connected to the internet, including the store. Some apps, like HP connected music, just open and close immediately. i also cannot download updates and alot of things run in offline mode. I am obviously connected to the internet and get 50 Mbps Up/Down. I have spoken with HP and Microsoft customer support, tried to clear the Windows store cache, and run troubleshooters but to no avail. Any help here?
Thanks,
Ryan
