Hello again,
Is there a proper way to repaint/refresh a JFrame? I tried calling
repaint() but it doesn't seem to work?
Thanks

You are going to have to give us a little more of a clue than that.

How about posting a simple, compilable test program that shows your problem?

Basically, I have a client and a server running. The JFrame displays
some basic information and a button to "Connect To Server". What I
want is so that after I click "Connect To Server" and all the jazz are
done, my frame will display something like "Client X Currently
Connected" instead of "Connected to none"....

Here is my frame code..all the GUI are done in myPanel with data
pulled from a_peer

public class ZigzagFrame extends JFrame implements Observer{

JPanel myPanel;
public ZigzagFrame(Peer a_peer){
myPanel = new ZigzagPanel(a_peer);

add(myPanel);
}
public void update(Observable obs, Object obj){
System.out.println("Updated Haha");

this.repaint();
myPanel.repaint();

}
}

Thanks a lot

In what component do you want to display the "Client X Currently Connected"? A simple solution is to display the message in a JLabel. After you connect to your client, change the text in the JLabel.
