A -2002F error typically indicates that your Mac is not getting the proper DNS server entries assigned by your local network's router. Basically, your Mac cannot "find" the Apple servers to get the operating system to load onto it.


As Ingo2711 has already mentioned, this could be a configuration error on your router.
