I figured it out ..

The chain server seems to be offline ... however I am not sure if you are using a chainserver .. could you go to your config directory %APPDATA/Roaming and take a look into the config.json file ..
if it states an ip address below "chain_server" .. then delete the line with the ip address ...

fixed it for me

Ah .. the "not connected" in the status bar could be caused by a bug in the gui ..

you can check for the "real connection status" using the "console" by typing "getinfo" .. the latest block time should be in the range of seconds ..
