If you lost the connection during the installation process (if I understood correctly) , then you must re-install. This is the only way.

Boot to root recovery mode and run:

sudo mount -o rw,remount /
 sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install

Can you help with this problem?
