Unskippable Mandatory FortiCare registrationg...really Fortinet?
Tried to setup a 90G for the first time like many other models thought it would be straight froward , was welcome with a mandatory fortigate registration for forticare. I wouldn't mind this infact I prefer it to link it straight away except I tried two methods to give it internet on the WAN port (even a phone ethernet tethering) and neither worked to find the reseller and YOU CAN'T SKIP IT THIS SCREEN UNLESS YOU USE CONSOLE CONNECTION.
So you are stuck unless you have a console cable to turn off enforcement but of course this does not come in the box, is this a joke? Did this really get signed off without considering a bypass method for the customer?
It's idiotic, heres my constructive feedback. Either give the option to skip it via Web GUI or stop being cheap and supply the cable for console connection. You already charge a handling fee I'm sure that can be included in the cost.
Has anyone else had it fail to get a WAN connection from the start and had this annoying issue?
