Hi, I'm a student of University of Florence, I tried to install the student edition of Hypermesh, but when I download the host ID, it doesn't give me the password, because in my PC there isn't the Ethernet. How can I found the host ID to install the program?

Thank's for the attenction

    The Ethernet ID is the ID of your machine which is exactly 12 hexadecimal numbers. For example D4WRF478F398

    Run ipconfig/all in command window and check for physical address under Ethernet adapter local area connection

    The listed physical address under Ethernet adapter local area connection should be used to generate the license file, if there is no listing of Ethernet adapter local area connection, the address under Wireless Adapter LAN Wifi must be used.

    That means if the address provided as above does not match the one in the license file, please request for the license file again with the correct Ethernet ID here https://studentedition.altair.com/
