use of academic license on a personal laptop

[moati]

Hi,

I was trying to activate an academic license on my personal laptop from my home and got an error that my IP address doesn't belong to academic domain.

Is there any workaround or do I have to activate it while being connected to my university domain?

Thanks,
Moati

You have to activate it while being connected to your university domain. But
this you only need to do once. Then, you can disconnect and also use it from home.

If your university has a VPN, you could connect via that and activate.

That's exactly what I did, thanks!
