At what point do you use the SkipMDM steps if you are turning on a MacBook for the first time which is marked for JAMF activation/enrolment during initial setup?

Is disabling WIFI router still a workaround to get you into the OS / restore from a backup and then run the SkipMDM script?

When I blocked the list below of apple URLs in the hosts file, my machine was unable to connect to iMessage or FaceTime. I would receive an error message of "unexpected error" when trying to log in with my apple account to iMessage, and "cannot send message iMessage needs to be enabled to send this message" when trying send a message. When I removed albert.apple.com from the hosts file, but kept the other sites, both iMessage and FaceTime activated and functioned properly.
