When downloading and installing FortiClient VPN for MACOS (FortiClientVPN_OnlineInstaller.dmg) the installer indicates that it could not connect to the update server.

 

Can anybody provide me  with the offline installer perhaps?

Hello @renierswart ,

 

You can dowload offline FortiClient installer from support.fortinet.com website.

@ozkanaltas thank you for the reply. I tried your link but nothing happens. support.foritnet.com has document & video libraries but nothing that points me to a page to download the offline installer.

Hello @renierswart ,

 

To download the FortiClient offline installer from the support website, you need to account and a valid support contract. If you don't have this account you can talk with your company responsible. They can download offline installers and can provide you. 

 

Can you try again with this link for vpn only client?

Did you ever find an offline mac vpnonly client installer?  We are running into this same issue where the online installer for mac fails to connect to the update server.
