Attempting to set up a new Iphone XR and continuing to receive a message that states "You iphone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached.". THis happens in bothe Quick and Manual process. Connected to WI-Fi that I am sure is working as I am using other devices on the same connection. Have also tried to connect to ITunes as suggested and this did not work either.

Hello uptight80,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I understand you're running into an issue setting up a new iPhone XR, and I'm here to see how I can help out.

If you've verified with your carrier that everything is good on that end, and you're not able to activate after restoring in recovery mode, that's when I recommend that you get in touch with Apple. You can use this link to Contact Apple Support.

Cheers.
