    Glance,

    You should find a section like “Ethernet adapter local area connection” when you run the “ipconfig /all” I only see a wireless LAN section.

    Please mind, that on laptops it’s a common case that the network card is deactivated when you are running on the battery.
    Please check, when you plug in your power supply and reboot the machine is there an active network card?
    You can check this using the following command:
    Run “ipconfig /all” on a DOS-Shell
    a.) Without power supply
    b.) With power supply (and reboot)

    You should find a section like “Ethernet adapter local area connection”.
    If this is not the case please check if your network card is deactivated.

    please additionally check your computers Host ID, by using the almutil -hostid application from the Start --> Altair --> Tools --> admin tools --> almutil hostid.
