I am starting to freak out a little. I set up my wallet with electrum. I then sent some money to it thinking it was fine. However I do not think the wallet address was ever sent to any server. On the network page it says in the program is says
 Status not connected
 Server None
 Blockchain 558431

Also it says below this connected Node and this is blank.

 So If I have created a wallet that is not accessible by the internet or that was ever created and registered on a server did the money I sent to it actually go there? If I can get Electrum to connect will this money appear finally or is it lost for good. Any help appreciated!

Ok I do not have a firewall set up. Does it matter if or how I am conneted to the internet? I am using a VPN on a wifi network. I think the issue is that the program will not even try to connect
I have read that there is a sync button but I sure do not see one. Am I missing something?

So I installed and set up an Electrum wallet but no matter what server I pick it will not connect to one? I am running 3.3.6 on a windows 8..1 machine. I have read many post with this issue but they are older and they do not seem to be fixing my issue. Any Help?
