iOS 8.1 Download Time

[metallifan33]

Hi All,
I'm trying to download iOS 8.1 for my iPad at home on iTunes. I have 50+ Mbps download speed here at home and have restarted iTunes and my computer multiple times. Everytime I try and download it, it says the download time is in excess of 24 hours.
Has anyone else had this problem?
I'm running iTunes 12.0.1.26
Thanks!!

It's possible that the problem is on Apple's end and not necessarily on your end. You can try going to Settings - General - Reset and then select "Reset Network Settings". Afterwards, try to updating your device again. Alternatively, you can download the .ipsw file for iOS 8.1 directly via the following link.
