1. Find Device Manager.
2. Click View.

4. Find Network Adapters.
5. Right-click the grayed out network adapters.
6. Uninstall the device.
7. Open EWAnet again and check.

If you have updated Windows, uninstall the updates!

There is no dependency.
EPC is the old software not intended for Windows 10+.
I will not write about the priority of metrics and network adapters in modern systems, but the easiest way is to use this:

Mercedes-Benz EPC v11.2018

I am not a computer expert, I am a hobbyist. I installed EPC/WIS and everything worked. Then I updated the Windows 10 system, and after the update, EPC/WIS did not work, there was no ID in the EWA Admin tool. I uninstalled the updates and everything worked again.
I emphasize, I don't understand this, I don't know why, but since the only change was the update, I deleted it.

Nope. It's just that the priority of network adapters changed during the update and then everything returned to its place after deletion.

To avoid any clever idiocy in the topic, I will explain.
Based on the code, EWA takes the highest priority adapter of all available, and if it is not LAN, then it physically cannot generate an ID. The easiest way is to substitute the required ID even without network adapters in the system.

Changing metrics does not help in all cases. There are at least two more ways to get around the problem. You will not be able to solve this problem using metrics if your system has IPv6 tunnel bridges that can only be disabled using PowerShell. But you will not be able to disable some of them and for this you will have to enter a command in CMD. Today, all these methods are known, but they are all different for each computer and knowing them, you will be able to work on the most modern Windows 11 22H2 without any problems.

netsh interface ipv6 6to4 set state disabled default
netsh interface ipv6 isatap set state disabled

netsh winsock reset

netsh wlan stop hostednetwork
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=disallow

I also spent a lot of time to get the "LAN ID" after installation. On older computers this was not a problem because of the different priorities of the network cards. And I think this is the most important thing, to give the highest possible priority to the physical LAN network card.

If all else fails, go to Settings/Advanced Network Settings and look for the "Network Reset" option. This will remove any old network devices that may have been installed over time and reset all network settings. Including WiFi passwords, so make sure you have all of that.
I found that this brought the LAN ID back even though all other fixes failed.
This is especially true if any of your network adapters show up as "Ethernet #2" or something similar.
