Locked out of macbook pro, resetting password using my apple ID. Cannot connect to server because there is no internet connection.

Easy problem right? Just connect to internet. No! Theres literally nowhere to go to do that available on the password recovery screen.

In the recovery screen, my only options are On the top left: the apple icon, which gives me options for startup disk, restart, and shut down.

Recovery assistant: options being “about recovery assistant”, change language, and erase mac

On the right top: Battery “Input sources”

There are no options on the bottom.

My password and email are correct, i used them to log into my ipad to verify. Server is fine, i verified on the website.

Every time it tells me that theres been an error connecting to the apple server.

I assume this is because im completely offline but there is no option to become… online or log into my wifi.

In other peoples walkthroughs, i see a wifi graphic next to the battery on the right hand side of the screen but that is inexplicably missing from mine.

How do i get this thing connected?

(Googling this question gets me a lot of answers about changing a wifi password, so be kind, i did try to look this up solo 😔)
