UPDATE: I have just recieved a reply from XLN to my offline installation enquiry. There is a way to do it, but it depends on what version of AD it is that CW are supplying . Version 1.54 or later is not supported for offline installation and any future versions and add-ons are also not supported,.

"you need to contact them" is a perfectly valid answer...
In this case its http://www.xlnaudio.com/support
 
Verbiage from XLN Audio's myaccount-myproducts page:
 
Download & Install Products - Online Installer
The Online Installer will download, install and update your products. Run it on your audio computer. Once you've run the installer once, it is always available from your Applications (Mac) or Start Menu (Win).
Requires OS X 10.5 / Intel Mac and an internet connection on your audio computer. For older Macs, or audio computers without internet: please contact support for help with installing.

Nope wasn't - removed the link to avoid misunderstanding....

Huh?
"you need to contact them" is a perfectly valid answer...
 

So if you went to a dealer and bought a car, but it turned out that the key wouldn't start it and their attitude was "not our problem, talk to Ford" you would be ok with that ?

I've contacted our friends at XLN to see if there's some workaround.

Thanks Bill, they have replied to me already, but it seems that it depends on the version no.

The one from Cakewalk is 1.5.7

So does only need to connect to the internet for installation? Because I don't have my DAW online, either. I would have to temporarily connect to install. But, once installed it will run when offline, right?
