What is Autel IP Restriction Lock?

Purchasing an Autel scanner is the right choice for all vehicle repairers and DIY enthusiasts, but when your Autel scanner prompts that the current IP is locked and I cannot use it, what should I do?

First, IP restrictions are present in almost every Autel scanner tablet tool, handheld code readers have no IP restrictions.

The IP restriction of Autel scanner is to determine the region where the scanner is located after the scanner is connected to the Internet, and restrict the use of scanners of different models and versions in the same country and region. For example, the US version of Autel Ultra can only be used in the United States.
