I don't have a ethernetID for licencing what should I do?

I have checked the ipconfig command and there was not any ethernetID. After installing the PSIM program that has given to me via e mail, I have run the licencing program that is located in security folder named "almutil_gui - Altair License Utility" and there wasn't any EthernetID in the list.

I have gave the wifiID for license previously and it didn't worked. What can i do to accuire the student license if I don't have an ethernetID?

I use laptop.

EthernetID is your Mac Address or Physical Address of your network card.

It is composed by 12 digits, and it is unique.

You can use your WiFi physical address, BUT take care with some power saving plans of your OS, as it might turn off your netwokr card, specially if this is a laptop, in order to save energy. If that happens, then your license will be lost, until your card is turned on again.
