Successfully Restoring Using WiFi:

Disable Cellular: While performing this, disable Cellular in Settings, and then just use WiFi.


As for Troubleshooting iPhone WiFi:

A few thoughts to try:


I. Start Here: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch won't Connect to a Wi-Fi Network - Apple Support


II. Clear the Temporary Internet Files:


III. Restart your Router:

  1. Power: off the router
  2. Wait: 30 seconds
  3. Power: It back on


IV. Reconnect to your Network:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: Wi-Fi
  3. Disable: Wi-Fi
  4. Wait: 30 seconds
  5. Enable: Wi-Fi


V. Add Back the Network:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: Wi-Fi
  3. Remove: the network
  4. Wait: 30 seconds
  5. Add: the network back
