Troubleshooting "Code -1008":

You may need to remove the activation lock. Being offline (not connected it iCloud), you'd go through iCloud.com on another device, to perform this.

  1. Go Here: How to Remove Activation Lock - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Remove Activation Lock on the web if a device is offline
  3. Proceed from there as necessary
