I have rerun Checkbox with the loggind detail asked for when reporting the bug:
  $ checkbox-qt --log-level=debug --log=checkbox.log

I've only selected the wireless/wireless_connection test, hope this can be helpful.

So the command is running, but fail to establish a simple connection. The test is hard-wired to connect to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com.

Can you do a couple things:

1: run the attached script from a terminal twice, like so:

./network_check -a; echo $?
./network_check --url=http://www.google.com -a; echo $?

and let us know the results.

2: if the first one fails (the attempt without the --url), can you try the following:

ping cdimage.ubuntu.com

or try opening http://cdimage.ubuntu.com in a web browser.

This is really a basic test, and if your networking is connected and working properly, the only reason this should fail is failure to reach a specified website.

and one other question,

do you happen to have both ethernet and wifi connected to the same network at the same time? there's a SLIGHT chance that that could cause connection problems (I've observed that before myself, but rarely).

This bug was fixed in the package checkbox - 0.16

---------------
checkbox (0.16) saucy; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (LP: #1178403):

  * Launchpad automated translation updates

  [ Jeff Lane ]
  * scripts/cpu_offlining: Modified script to no longer offline cpu0 to resolve
    a bug on ARM. Modified output so most of it is redirected to stderr for
    fail cases, we don't need that much for success cases. (LP: #1078897)
  * jobs/mediacard.txt.in: Modified test instructions to be less confusing
    (LP: #970857)
  * scripts/cpu_topology: define the cpuinfo nested dicts on creation rather
    than define elements during parsing of /proc/cpuinfo (LP: #1111878)
  * scripts/lsmod_info: Corrected error handling for the check_output() call to
    trap the correct error. (LP: #1103647)
  * jobs/camera.txt.in: removed an extraneous requres line for gir1.2
    scripts/camera_test: added code to determine what version of gst we're
    using and set video type and plugin accordingly. (LP: #1100594)
  * scripts/network_check: added ability to specify custom target URL for
    debugging failures (LP: #1128017)
  * scripts/sleep_test_log_check: added new script to parse fwts logs for
    errors
    jobs/hibernate.txt.in, jobs/stress.txt.in, jobs/suspend.txt.in: added jobs
    to use the sleep_test_log_check script after s3/s4 tests. Modified current
    s3/s4 tests to use the new None fail level for fwts_test
    scripts/fwts_test: no longer fails on fwts errors if "-f none" is chosen.
    Now it should only fail by manual indication if the actual sleep action
    fails. (LP: #1169922)
  * scripts/bluetooth_test: test no longer generates odd Broken Pipe error when
    the dpkg bit verifies obexftp is installed (LP: #1169488)
  * jobs/networking.txt.in: fixed networking/info jobs that were not being run
    because $output was being resolved too early (LP: #1065983)
  * scripts/memory_compare: cleaned up the output to be more explanatory and
    easier to visually parse (LP: #1072666)
  * jobs/miscellanea.txt.in: Added jobs for manual verification of PXE boot and
    remote IPMI to improve server test coverage.
  * jobs/led.txt.in: Modified Jobs: led/power, led/wlan, led/wlan-disabled. New
    jobs: led/power-blink-suspend, led/suspend, led/mute
    jobs/keys.txt.in: modified keys/wireless
  * plugins/lock_prompt.py: added a lock release to cleanly clear lock on stop.
    plugins/persist_prompt.py: promoted save to run before lock release.
    checkbox/lib/fifo.py: trap OSError exception at close when the input/output
    fifo fds disappear before fifo.close() can get to them. (LP: #115561)
  * jobs/info.txt.in: fixed bad driver name in audio_codecs job (LP: #1165215)
  * jobs/mediacard.txt.in: reduce test file size for MMC to 64MB (LP: #1167214)
  * jobs/led.txt.in, jobs/suspend.txt.in: removed bits about WLAN LED flashing
    from the WLAN jobs as that no longer happens on data tx/rx (LP: #1157606)
  * jobs/power-management.txt.in: added manual reboot and shutdown tests for
    server and Xen testing. Took the opportunity to correct punctuation in the
    descriptions or other manual jobs.
    jobs/virtualization.txt.in: added virtualization/x...
