## Troubleshooting

### Networking

There are a wide variety of networking issues that can occur while running `corepack` commands. Things to check:

- Make sure your network connection is active.
- Make sure the host for your request can be resolved by your DNS; try using `curl [URL]` from your shell.
- Check your proxy settings (see [Environment Variables](#environment-variables)).
