Yeah. It's unfortunate. I think that there are plans to change the Agent so that it looks at cached articles in addition to the downloaded ones. So you could just go offline and enter the group at that point. But it seems that what you want is to use the Agent, instead of the cache, to work offline. (Currently, I think it works to enter a group, then use `Y c', to see cached articles while offline (unplugged).) -- A preposition is not a good thing to end a sentence with.
