-1006F error message when trying to recover mac

my macbook pro crashed and i sent it for repairs.. so the guy installed a new hard drive but then sent it back with a screen having a flashing folder with a question mark.. so i looked at this page and basically restarted by pressing the option button. So I came to a screen that asked for my internet password.. then i clicked on a button that says internet recovery.. then i got this screen:

enter image description here

after a while I got a screen with error: apple.com/support -1006F.. any idea what that means or what I should do next?

Take a look at this discussion on Apple Support Communities about -1006f which contains this solution :

Hold Command and R keys while the Mac is starting to start in Recovery HD. If you can start up, open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and verify the disk. If it gives you an error, repair your drive. If it can't be repaired, you need a new hard disk.

If you can't start, hold Command, Option (Alt) and R keys


Here is the good news:

You got in to the Internet recovery mode. So you Mac is alive but not well.

Normally the next step for the recovery would be to establish the Internet connection.

If it works you would see a spinning Globe with progress bar.

Since you do not have that here is the bad news.

You might have a broken Internet, so make sure the computer is connected to a live Internet.

Needless to say, you would not need all the above if you had a external recovery disk.

Anyway, try again this time going straight in to the Internet recovery.

Too use Lion Internet Recovery, instead of the Recovery Partition.

You must have an internet connection, and have handy any router credentials for connecting to the Internet. (See the section on supported protocols)

When starting the computer, press Command+Option+R until you see a spinning globe appear along with a message about the recovery mode.

This will force your Mac to launch Internet Recovery. You'll know that you are in Internet Recovery when you see a spinning globe and a meter running underneath it.
