error
In Internet Recovery, these low negative thousands error messages indicate that your provided Wi-Fi Network is inadequate in some fashion, and cannot be used (for this purpose) in its current state.
Common problems include:
Hidden Network-name
required use of a proxy server to get Internet access
required use of a login page to get Internet access
Use of a login server or certificate to get Internet access
Use of PPPoE in the Mac to get Internet access (typically only applies to DSL)
Use of Fixed IP address rather than good old DHCP
Variance of the time by more than five minutes
Failure of Router to provide workable DNS server addresses, or providing 0.0.0.0 [may produce -2002f]
If you have an Ethernet port, you may in some cases be able to move your Mac close to the Router and connect to the Router using Ethernet.
The higher the number, the more obscure the problem.
Also, make certain the Date&Time and Time Zone are correct within 5 minutes.

Power Cycle your router
Disable any VPN or Proxy server
Uninstall any third party Cleaners,Optimizers,Anti-virus
Do a safe boot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262----
Ah I see ... that's what the 1007F code means. It never booted up and would sometimes show that code when I would try to boot in Internet Recovery. That's not the problem evidently. My internet is running fine.
I built a Boot USB with High Sierra on it https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372 and finnaly got it to boot in recovery mode so I got the disk utility and am running the first aid on the main volume and it keeps repeating this message ...
"warning error (5) getting cib 9 bitmap 33 @ 191186 on device 0"
I'm guessing the hard drive has some really bad sectors. so it's done ... maybe I'll get a new hard drive if I can find one for it, it's a 2012 i5 core so maybe there's still some out there. Thanks for the help! I do appreciate it.
I fail to see how I could uninstall anything on a computer I can't get to boot in any mode but I did try the router reset ... no help there. Also, the link to the safe boot leads to a page that can't be found. So ... anything else?
