Resetting my iphone 11 via USB-C and Finder app

My iphone 11 recently went into unavailable mode, and after the wait period was over i tried entering the correct passcode multiple times, but it refused to accept the code, so the wait period went from 5 mins to 8hrs after multiple attempts. I'm seing it might be a software update issue, and my phone indeed was downloading some software overnight, and i've resolved to resetting it with my Mac. However, every time i go into recovery mode on my iphone, the recovery software starts downloading on my mac, says it'll take about 4 hours, but then the iphone seems to disconnect and restart, going to the lockscreen where the 'unavailable' timer has gone back to 8hrs, since i disabled the option to erase iphone after multiple attempts. Now I have to restart the whole process again and i'm stuck in this loop. What do i do? My cable isn't faulty at all.
