you can download 16.1.14 from this link

This is driving me nuts, I can't work anymore, the firewall keeps bugging me to take a decision, even allowing everything, my software that use network licensing stopped to work.
 
 

There is an option in advanced setup to block ESET product from making automatic version upgrades, it's under Update > Profiles.
I had to find EIS version 16.1.14 elsewhere, since ESET themselves don't provide old versions, at least publicy. Of course I checked file signatures to make sure it's the official installer and not tampered.
 
I use interactive mode. I tried many things but I didn't take note, so to stop wasting time, I just downgraded the version altogether and now everything is working as intended.
 

I had to downgrade to 16.1.14 and block EIS from making version update, current 16.2.x is unusable, I couldn't use any software that makes online license checks, they were all having timeouts and closing, making me loosing my work.
