I'm trying to update to iOS10 but this is the error I get:-
iOS 10.2.1 failed verification because you are no longer connected to the internet 😕
I tried using my phone data as well as via wifi but unable.
Kindly advise. Tx
iOS 7.0.2
I get this all the time. I can download the update via HughesNet but can NEVER get it to verify. So once it fails to verify I switch to the Verizon LTE net (or personal hotspot if it is an iPad) and it verifies instantly. Same deal on Watch updates too. I figured that since this happens so consistently, I should share this with others who are probably as frustrated with this as I was before I figured out how to get around it.
If you don’t see the update in the list of apps or if the issue happens again, you need to update your device with iTunes.
I just spent 10 hours working on this. Was at the ATT store who couldn't fix it. What finally worked was switching to another network (took trying a few).
Apple, are you reading this?! WHAT is going on over there? Don't you guys test this stuff? There are so many people having this same problem ("won't connect to internet" when trying to update software) My cell phone service was off for days due to the update not being able to be installed. That's just dangerous and irresponsible and TERRIBLE business. Hugely ****** and will never use another apple product again.
Hello,
If the steps above didn't help, I would recommend removing the update and trying again.
Here's the steps:
Remove and download the iOS update again
If you still can't install the latest version of iOS, try downloading the update again:
If you don’t see the update in the list of apps or if the issue happens again, you need to update your device with iTunes.
I have tried EVERYTHING...soft reset,hard reset,network reset, clearing ram, stood on my head😂. I am housebound taking care of my mother. I have no one I can call that has a computer that I could hook up my IPAD to and try to do the update through Itunes. I called Best Buy and the Geek Squad will come to the house for 100-+. CRAZY! I am just so frustrated and upset. I have been trying for a week trying to get this update.
Hello,
If you can’t reach the update server or can’t verify the update
If you try to update the iOS on your device, you might see one of these messages:
"Unable to Check for Update. An error occurred checking for a software update."
"Unable to Verify Update. iOS failed verification because you are no longer connected to the Internet."
Try updating your device again using the same network. If you still see one of these messages, try updating your device using another network. If the issue happens again after trying to update with multiple networks, remove the update.

I am having this problem also. I have an IPAD 2 still on 5.1.1 and trying to install the 9.2.1 update. It is not even listed under manage storage so I cannot delete it. I do not have a computer so I need help to fix it.
I'm getting the "unable to verify" error as well, but it's while setting up my new iPhone 6. I'm trying to restore from an iCloud backup, but it's making me download iOS 11 and then giving me the "unable to verify update" error, even though I AM still connected to the internet.
I'm having this problem: I don't have the iOS update in my list of apps that come up after following the Instuctions to go to Settings -> general -> storage and icloud usage -> manage storage -> delete iOS app (So that then the update can be dowloaded again). So why doesn't my iPad show the app in my list of apps, and what do I do now?
Want download iOS 11
Hello there, Thank you very much, it helpful and best answer!🙂
You're welcome! 🙂
🙂THIS WORKED! Yay! Thank you!
Just got my iPhone X. Can't use it. Why you ask? Because it's stuck at bring an update and I can't move forward because it Kris saying I'm not connected to the internet, when clearly I am.
No. I have clicked on Retry several times, but I have not clicked on try later. If that makes any kind of difference, I can try that.
For the person who said the update wasn't shown in the app list under manage storage, I thought the same thing at first. Keep that screen open for a minute or two. For me, the iOS update was late to show up on the list.
unable to verify update
