There's no clear path from getting the computer out of the box just setting it up without internet. If you call the manufacturer and they know what the hell they're doing they'll walk you through doing the OOBE no internet fix. It just needs to be an option in the damn operating system. The fact that they're hiding it from you is unconscionable.

The antitrust machine hasn't had its scheduled maintenance for a few generations. It's gonna take a little while to spin up.
