I’m stunned by the initial lack of help you received. I find it very frustrating as someone who works offline often being told that the problem is my choice to work offline, not the software’s insistence on reaching a host no-matter-what. It’s a real failure on wordpress’ part to not either have a configuration option to deal with this problem OR some instructions on server setup that would help shorten the DNS wait time before giving up. I have been running into the same problem locally off and on… there really must be some server configuration we can do to cause wordpress/php/local-browser to fail quicker when it DNS is unresolvable or a destination IP is unreachable.
