4. Enter OOBE\BYPASSNRO 
5. This will restart the computer setup process and give you a new network screen with the option to select "I dont have internet" just like WIndows 10



UPDATE 06/25/2025
Certain versions of windows 11 are no longer letting you use the first option to set up an account without internet, there is a new method pictured below, just be sure when setting up the account to use the generic username/password so we can use it to locally log in if we ever need to
