Client does not access to this site.

I have the home version of Microstation V8i from  where I work. I have put in the license key and set the server to selectserver-home. Program runs and claims it is activated. Initially the countdown was 29 days to activate. Everyday, though, I have to go through the activation process and now the day counter is down to 16 days. What is going on? Is the program going to cease operating at 0 days? do I need a Proxy server. Is my firewall causing the problem. IT at my day job says they don't service the home version. Running Windows 10
