  <title>I get a message that says “Network error”</title>

  <p>
    This kind of error happens when <app>Empathy</app> cannot communicate
    with the instant messaging service for some reason.
  </p>
  <p>
    Also, this kind of error happens when you try to use an IRC account without
    setting a nickname.
  </p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>
        Make sure that you are connected to the Internet, or to a local area network.
      </p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click the <media type="image" mime="image/png" src="figures/gtk-edit.png" its:translate="no"><span its:translate="yes">edit</span></media>
      icon in the error message.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        Check in the <gui>Advanced</gui> section that all the details are correct.
        You should be able to find these details from the website of the messaging
        service.
      </p>
<!--
        <item>
          <p>
            In the case of an IRC account, type your nickname in the <gui>Nickname</gui>
            text box.
          </p>
        </item>
-->
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        Switch the account off, and then switch it on to try to reconnect to the
        service.
      </p>
    </item>
  </steps>
