I stopped using the Software Updater years ago.  It would work Just Fine 
to tell me I had updates, but when I tried to install them it would 
insist that there wasn't a network connection.  I have yumex installed 
and it works Just Fine.  (At one point, it too failed to find an 
existing network connection, but I just disabled the check.  It doesn't 
need to check, because I'd never try to use it if my DSL were down.)
