So I gave in and tried jailbreaking...being told it was hassle free. It doesn't seem that way.

I can not update my 4s to 6.1.1.

It says my phone could not be restored and is not eligible for the requested build

Even putting it in DFU mode would not allow me to update. Any idea?
 
Your hosts file is the prob.
If you ran tinyumbrella go to advanced and uncheck requests shsh from cydia.
Then close TU, open itunes and hit restore again.

They were unchecked. Apparently can't have TU umbrella open while trying to restore though as well.

Thanks for the help
