My network consists of one ubuntu compact laptop computer, and printer.
Unless it means my internet connection...which works fine.
Posting the contents of "/etc/apt/sources.list" might get you some help from someone familiar with Ubuntu. Note the error in your output "malformed line", something's wrong with an entry. Which Ubuntu are you using 14.04 or 15.10?
As yancek has asked, what is your current version of Ubuntu? Furthermore, are you attempting to upgrade to 16.04?
Currently you cannot upgrade directly from 14.04 to 16.04.
