So over the past couple of days I've been moving house, and I don't yet have Internet. I set up my computer last night, but when I tried to play The Sims 4, a window pops up and wants me to sign into my ea account to activate TS4. But I've owned TS4 since I preordered it in August 2014 and haven't had issues until now.

Is it a laptop that you are playing the game on? If it is, could you perhaps take it to a place such as a library where you can access the internet, then try logging in and seeing if that helps the issue.
If you still have issues, try uninstalling and reinstalling origin whilst you using the free internet access and see if that helps.

Sadly not. I own a very large computer tower.
Try shutting down your computer completely. Then restart the computer and see if that helps.
If the issue remains, you may need to either wait until you have Internet access to try uninstalling and reinstalling origin, or may need to be in touch with EA help.

Yeah restarted multiple times. Guess I'll just have to wait for me to get my internet. Thanks for trying!
Are you close to your neighbors? Maybe you can use their wireless network temporarily if they're within range or you have an extender that you can mount at an appropriate position within your house or bedroom...

Yep. Getting into Origin isn't an issue. The pop up that asks me to sign into my EA to "activate" my game prevents me from playing.
Sadly not. My new house is in a secluded neighborhood primarily of mansions on massive gated properties. Not exactly an easy way to get connected to the neighbors wifi.

You can always try tethering your cellphone if you have an unlimited data plan?
Get almost no service there. Tried wifi hotspot, but like I said, no service.
Well, almost isn't none. You could try locating a position where the hotspot is able to connect then bridge it to another wireless router through a laptop so that your gaming system can access the connection over the LAN...
