I’ll add that the router was first set up last year, February 2017, by someone other than myself and there were no issues connecting any devices without the internet connection. Any newdevice joining the network joined the same as a network with internet, no prompts of any kind other than password. This tells me there is a way to do it without special steps when joining for the first time.

Well I took some time this morning to Factory Reset an old router and opened up the setup. As I have read in other places, using a Static IP helped. Hopefully I will be able to replicate the process this evening and grab some screenshots to walk others through the process. As someone who hasn’t done a ton of network setup, I know it canbe confusing for the general public, so I hope to shine some light on this for others.
How do I connect to a Wi-Fi network that has no Internet Connection?
