With studio+ will there be a way to have an offline mode?

Reason I’m asking is because I want to leverage the render nodes by upgrading an old pc, but in the UK our internet in homes is fast but doesn’t reach far (most providers have an inter grated modem and router. My pc being upstairs also makes trailing Ethernet cables down the stairs a bit cumbersome. So the reason offline could work is it means we could utilise an offline network using a router with no internet just for rendering, similar to what Rokoko suggests.

Hi,

yes sure, it is possible to net render in offline mode, but you need that both Workstation and Render Nodes have an Octane Offline USB Dongle:

Note that you also need to have a yearly Studio+ license, not monthly.

ciao,
