I can't download any of my games for my Steam library. It is telling me there is no internet connection. My internet is working fine so why can't i access my steam games? I have never experienced this before.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Have you tried rebooting your computer? That's the first thing I found on most of my search results. Most also recommend you check for Steam updates. There are several suggestions here.

Check to make sure you are Logged In or at the very least make sure you check your steam app to see if you are "[b]Online"[/b], if you are offline then you will get that "You are not connected to the internet error"

This happens to me occasionally. I just wait it out. I think it is when they are doing something on their end. Right now Down Detector shows issues.

OMG Draclvr we posted at the same time, if I saw yours first I would not have posted mine.

Thank you all for your replies. I am back on Steam with no issues now. I think perhaps it was on their end....thanks again.

I've actually had it happen three times on Tuesday late afternoons, so that must be when they update or something.
