If you take this as hate language, I could show you some other places but what's the point ?
Certainly must be my lack of understanding of English as a non-native speaker, since you seem to point towards the language barrier each time.
Typically American

Generally there is a rather supportive spirit around here.
But what's really hard to find here is spoon feeding. Doesn't help anyone.
You failed to mention before you're using Linux. Most people use Wine and run Winbox under that environment. Already tried to use that ?
Not having a SIM card inserted will prevent the device from (default) accessing WAN/internet but local network should be available.
Have you tried connecting the device directly to your computer (unplug from ISP modem, plug that cable in your PC, if default config is correct it should give your PC a DHCP IP address in the range 192.168.88.0/24). It should show up in Winbox neighbors.
If using webconfig (webfig), the address to be used is 192.168.88.1.
Default account admin, no passwd (if you get in, CHANGE it immediately).
@rextended: that first sentence IS correct English. Your version is a common mistake
To his defense: what jeffschips showed, is copy-paste from Mikrotik instructions.
We are all aware their instructions could use some ... ermmm ... let's call it "cleaning up".
Since you have access to "the inner circle" maybe you can point that https error out to MT-staff ? As far as I know https access is default disabled ? No ?
