Unknown error (1100) when trying to update an iPhone

I tried updating my iPhone to iOS 14.6 last night with iTunes on my computer and the update failed, and I see the iPhone restore screen on my phone. I'm trying to follow the instructions to restore and keep getting this message:


The iPhone "iPhone" could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (1100).


"More Info" leads me to this page:


https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201263


And following the instructions there don't work either. Is there something else that I can try?

We understand that you are not able to update your device, and it is currently the recovery mode screen.
