Hi there!


When booting into internet recovery (using CMD+OPTION+R), how far along do you get before this error appears?


Your error code appears to be connection-related. Make sure nothing is blocking your connection to the Apple servers, such as DNS settings, or firewall rules. If you are using Wi-Fi, try Ethernet.


You may also want to try booting with CMD+OPTION+SHIFT+R - which downloads the first available version of the recovery partition for your Mac model.


Regards
