# Internet access | Disconnected mode
{% hint style="info" %}
This is only supported in DeployR Enterprise.
{% endhint %}
DeployR is intended to operate in an environment where the DeployR server is able to access and download content from the internet.
In cases where the DeployR server is unable to access the internet, Disconnected Mode can be configured in the DeployR configuration editor. Slide the "Show advanced" toggle to enable to have the Disconnected Mode option become visable in the editor.
When this is enabled, the DeployR server will not attempt to download content from the internet (with some exceptions, as noted below). Instead, the DeployR administrator needs to download the content from a separate computer that does have internet access. This can be done using the following process:
1. Copy the "C:\Program Files\2Pint Software\DeployR\WebServer\Scripts\Download.ps1" to a location that is accessible on the computer with internet access (copy to a USB key, network share, etc.).
2. Ensure PowerShell 7.4.11 (or higher version of 7.4, not 7.5.X) is installed on the computer with internet access. Run "pwsh.exe" on that computer to start a PowerShell 7 session.
3. Execute the "Download.ps1" file specifying a "-DownloadLocation" parameter with the path to receive the downloaded files.\
4. When the downloads have completed, the resulting folder should appear like this:\
5. Copy the entire contents of the folder to the DeployR server's "Downloads" folder. When using the default content location, this will be "C:\ProgramData\2Pint Software\DeployR\Downloads." If you have specified a custom content location in the DeployR configuration editor, create a "Downloads" folder in that location and copy the contents into that. The end result should look like this:\
This process should be repeated after each DeployR installation or upgrade, as well as periodically to pick up the latest available Windows media information.
Note that these features require internet connectivity from the DeployR server:
* Linux support. The Linux boot image generation process pulls Linux installation files from one or more Fedora mirror locations; downloading all of this content locally is not practical.
* Entra ID step definitions. The [Add to Entra ID group](/deployr/1.2/reference/step-definitions/add-to-entra-id-group.md), [Register with Autopilot](/deployr/1.2/reference/step-definitions/register-with-autopilot.md), and [Set Intune device owner](/deployr/1.2/reference/step-definitions/set-intune-device-owner.md)steps need to commuicate with the Microsoft Graph API.
* Entra ID authentication. In order to validate Entra ID security tokens, DeployR needs to be able to access the current public key information for Entra ID.
Additionally, client computer may need access to the internet for a variety of cloud-based features such as [Apply operating system from cloud](/deployr/1.2/reference/step-definitions/apply-operating-system-from-cloud.md)and [Inject drivers from cloud](/deployr/1.2/reference/step-definitions/inject-drivers-from-cloud.md).
