I can access the internet from my instance no problem. 

"- you might not have a neutron metadata-agent & proxy configured and running"

This one might be the issue. Where should I look to configure this?

The cloud-init address is used for dynamic configuration of your instances.

Reasons it might fail:
- you might not have a neutron metadata-agent & proxy configured and running
- your networking might be misconfigured : if instance networking
doesn't come up, you'll see that error.

I suspect the latter issue is the problem.
