Error 'wrong host for license (-4)

[garvey]

i bought and installed my copy of AM whislt i Was in my college library on their wifi network, I'm now sat in a different part of the library and the wireless network is not working, not your fault, lol. But when I run A:M I get the error message wrong host for license (-4).

 

 

why is that, I won't be going home for another two hours yet, do I need to be connected to the net for A:M to work?

You need a connection for the first time you connect and licence it.

After that it shouldnt be necessary. Hopefully your licencing was successful and there was not a wireless lan fallout while you was licencing or something.

this is a result of something that causes your primary network adapters MAC address to change- typically the cause is a virtual adapter used for VPNs-

the changing MAC address needs to be resolved, then we can issue a new key tied to your permanent MAC address-

I tried starting AM this morning and received this same message. I don't have any other applications running so I have no idea how to fix this... If someone could offer a solution to my problem then I would greatly appreciate it. Also if you do offer a solution can you tell me how to prevent this from happening in the future?

 

Thanks,

Mark

I just installed Windows 7 x64 onto my machine, but unfortunately I started getting the 'Wrong host for licence' error after restoring my 'master0.lic' to the 'Hash Inc/V15.0' Folder.

You'll need to contact Hash for assistance. Jason at hash dot com should suffice but being the holiday season, it might be a little while before he can contact you.
