I'm very new to Kodi, and just trying to figure out how to add on anything. I have Kodi running on my Rpi B+. The walk throughs suggest going to:
Settings -> Add-ons
the only repositories listed are
OpenELEC Mediacenter OS add-ons
and
Modi Add-on repository
However, if I select one of these, I only see an empty list. Is there an additional step required to see what's in these repositories?
Thanks!

Hi. Thanks. Unfortunately, It seems this didn't help. After I press 'c' and the context menu pops up, I select "force refresh" and the resulting contents remain empty.

Check your kodi.log, must be a network problem.

Is there a way to view this without downloading XBMC/Kodi Log Uploader?

Sure, login with ssh (PuTTY on Windows), and view it with "more /storage/.kodi/temp/kodi.log".
If you're on OpenELEC, you can upload the log file with "cat /storage/.kodi/temp/kodi.log | pastebinit".
You can also download the logfile using something like Filezilla.

Turns out, I wasn't! I found that my ethernet cable was plugged into the WAN input of my router. Moving to the actual switch corrected the problem. Silly. Thanks!
