So my reason says it needs to connect to internet because some REs require internet. I want to know which ones so that i can remove them.
Any simple way to find out ?

It's something that you are trialling or renting. Go to your online account and browse through the REs listed in your products.
One of them will say "expires on xxx" or similar. Then on you PC open the authoriser, find that RE and remove it.

And if you don’t have any on trial or subscription the you may need to do a sync all. Happened a number of times for me after downloading an update. Pain in the arse.

Just curious, why do you need to remove them?
I like to work offline, i Don't want to be stuck if theres no internet and a song uses an RE which requires internet...id rather just remove it, than to not be able to open up that file. I live in a place where power outages are frequent and i work on backup power, but internet goes out.

Yes even reason studios suggested sync all, I'll do it when my power is back and home's internet is working.

You can check the trial version in your account.
Wierd, my product page doesn't list any trial REs, but reason still wants to connect to internet

As above. Just Sync All and you’ll be fine. In the meantime you don’t need to connect. Just click on the box to the right and open Reason without internet verification.

This is a common misconception.

I'm not sure how the wording is so often misinterpreted.

Keywords are "some" and continue without "these" REs.

I'm not sure how else they could word it. Maybe they need to add "REs you have purchased and authorized will be available" under the continue button?

This comes up often and I've pointed out to them. But REs you own that are authorized to your computer are always accessible for offline use—just click continue.

It also happens with "rent-to-own" REs, where you're making monthly payments but haven't fully "bought" the RE yet.

It can happen when you update a re. I don't sync all but I make sure to go to the product page of the re and download from there. That fixes it.

Not always. I've had RE updates that cause the whole must log-in thing even though they're legit licenses. I've also had it confirmed. Sync-all is the only way to get it work in those situations. Crappy buggy software.
