My office purchased 3 independent licenses of Office 2016 Professional Plus. We have very limited bandwidth and would like to find an offline method of installation that will prevent us from having to download Office to each of the new computers separately. I've tried the Deployment Tool, but it still uses internet for the installation. Any other thoughts?

Spoke to Answer Desk, there isn't an Offline Installer available for Office 2016 Pro Plus yet. Each installation will require downloading the program from the internet.
We've tried that, but it downloads and installs Office365, our key won't activate it. The Office365 then re-downloads an updated copy of Office which matches our product key. It took the last computer 12 hours to download all the necessary updates associated with the different version of Office while simultaneously freezing everyone else out of internet.
