I’d assume it nags whenever it can’t connect to the home server, and just says “network”.

So when they go out of business any remaining units will nag forever.

You can use your router or access point tools to check what address it’s trying to resolve and then set up a redirect to a device that can respond with a fake response.

  I’m not going through all that BS just to reward the manufacturer with a sale. It went back, fuck 'em, and I replaced it with a normal cheap computer monitor which is what I told him to buy in the first place.

  At that point, you’ve put multiple man-hours into analyzing the response required to placate it, and it isn’t a “cheap” device anymore. Easier to return it.
