Problems with activating license on new laptop

Hi, recently I have bought a new laptop and installed Trados Studio 2017 Freelance Plus but I can't activate it. It shows "Activation failed. Could not connect to the activation server. Check the activation server address in the provider settings." I am a tecnical dummy and don't know what to do. I tried the alternative activation options, they all failed. There are 5 days remaining of the trial period. Could you please help me? Thank you!
