As noted in the comments and linked question, try

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential

If this isn't working, there's another problem that needs to be solved first.

So essentially sudo apt-get update is not working and trows unable to connect to 192.168.2.1:8081. (If you had this for a long time, your PC will probably not have had any updates during this)

You could try to go to the software sources and change the server to the 'main server'. I'm not sure if that is the problem here tho.

Maybe read through this: "Unable to connect" error with apt-get
