jabber for non-wireless XO ?

[Mikus Grinbergs]

I don't have any wireless.  I do have a wired ethernet connection to 
a LAN (which in turn uses a proxy to reach the internet).

Even when I specify in sugar-control-panel the name of a real 
server, my XO is not accessing jabber (the field in olpc-netstatus 
is shown blank).  I believe my proxy can correctly pass requests for 
ports 5222-5223.  Does telepathy work with a wired ethernet?  Does 
it have a problem if the connection is through a proxy?
