I think you may have a connectivity issue with your appliance. Try pinging Google's public DNS service: 
ping 8.8.8.8
Also you can try diagnosing this manually from the command line with curl and wget.

The WordPress Dashboard Troubleshooting section suggests:

Solution:Confirm you are properly connected to the internet then do the Automatic Upgrade again.

I also found a couple of old posts about it (see one here) and a 2yo WP bug which was fixed. There is also a more recent post on Ubuntu forums but it doesn't really have a fix. It seems a workaround for him was to put the WordPress server outside the hardware Firewall he was using.

Are you behind some sort of Firewall?
