Network connection:  probably ok (you posted here, after all).

"Repository address" is a network address (URL) of a site you can 
download software packages from.

The preferences are in /etc/apt/sources.list and editable using

   System > Administration > Software Sources

Especially look at the "Third-Party Software" tab and untick any that 
you don't know what they are.

If you are still unsure, post the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list 
to this newsgroup.
