 The firewall is configured for maximum protection and prevents access from the outside. This is done deliberately in order to crack the system could not boot stage.
 Of course the system works is, however, as you can imagine, without the necessary adjustments and additional system files, this is almost the same as the computer without an operating system.
 However, under a license, you can modify the existing distribution so that it can work in a fully autonomous mode without connecting to our service, but in this case, we disclaim all responsibility for the consequences.
 If the system is successfully initialized using our service, HellGate™ can operate in stand-alone mode - you can even disable the primary network interface, if you need it for security reasons.
 But in this case, the system loses the ability to dynamically synchronize, including automatic installation of critical updates, and administration from the outside.
