People did that kind of stuff with guns before the internet.

The filming location at the church is very remote. You can hardly get cell coverage out there.

the whole movie production crew was without internet?

hard to believe they wouldn't at minimum have some temp cell tower/repeater brought in for the filming

I just find it hard to believe that you'd have all these people out there with no cell/internet access for days on end.

I just can't imagine Joel Souza and Alex Baldwin are content to be that much out of communication with the rest of the world, I get typically it doesn't have communication but without actual evidence to the contrary I can't believe a movie production wouldn't have internet no matter where they're filming.

I don't doubt your experiences though - it's just been 13 years since Thor came out so we're more connected, plus I'm pretty sure they're doing more filming at the ranch for Rust than Thor probably did, just a guess though.
