I’m getting error during Reinstall OS X Installation on MacBook Air 2010

Hello, while installing Yosemite in the OS X install section(App store sing in )on the MacBook Air 2010, an unexpected error occurred while signing in.

,The server gave an error during download: 403

Please help me with the Forbidden error. The device is in Turkey. ————-///-Additional information: I have been trying to install for a long time and in addition, I have been trying all Mac OS versions on the device for a long time, but only Mountain Lion was the one, but when I was trying to upgrade it to High Sierra, OS X crashed and now it is Yosemite. I try and I get this error too (translated with Google translate)

Download macOS 10.13 High Sierra, and use that.

Use Option-Command-R to boot Recovery:

PS: HTTP 403 is a blockage on the Apple server, meaning the requested file is blocked by server policy. I would not expect the choice of Wi-Fi or Ethernet to make a difference there as both will access the Internet from the same router and same IP address, and as MacBook Air lacks Ethernet connection, which makes that path more involved as it needs a dongle. Again, HTTP 403 is a server blockage, not a local issue.
