PMS Offline Mode - LAN with no internet - How to?

Hey everyone,

Since PMS has made some changes to logins etc I have found difficulty around completely offline servers.

Recently I built a PMS for my brother who lives in a remote area with no internet connect.

I built the server in my own home and made sure Plex downloaded all the content/metadata and so on so that it was ready to go.

I took the PC to my brother's house and I realised that it wouldn't work unless I had an active internet connection.
I looked around the server but it seems you must have a plex.tv login active, and then activate all client devices with the 4-digit alphanumerical code. Clients must be online also.

I do remember not too long ago this wasn't a requirement and it simply needed to be on the same LAN and any devices could use it.

Does anyone know what version of PMS still supported that? I think I have to downgrade or does anyone know how to enable that on the latest version?

Thanks in advance.
