Herb -
The problem is that my machine is too far from the router for a cable and it's not WiFi equipped.

I'm hoping that the supplied code will activate the software on first boot and that the internet will only be needed for de-activation and generating a new code. If that is the case, though, I don't see how it would stop anyone from activating more than three machines which were off-line.

Anyone able to help?
