I recently installed BackBox Linux. At first when I tried to connect to the from terminal using my USB broadband connection(no proxy) there was no any issue. Then I tried to set up proxy settings for our university's network.I followed the steps of the IZX's answer in this article. Then again I removed the text I changed, and tried to install some packages and tried to update, then terminal shows some errors like this

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

What should I do??

Thanks for the reply. But it did not work. I switched to ubuntu 14.04 and wifi works perfectly fine. Thanks again for the effort. – Buddhika Jayawardhana Sep 28 '14 at 11:19
