FortiClient VPN Offline Installer

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?

@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?

This is for the same online installer that @renierswart  is having issues with. What is needed is an offline installer for the VPN only client. The offline installer from the website when accessed as administrator is a full version which requires a license.
