do you need to be connected to wifi when activating a new iphone 4 through itunes?

sorry if this has been posted, i haven't been on here in a while
 
Your computer (not iPhone) needs to be connected to the internet in some way. Either by Wi-fi, ethernet or whatever. If your computer isn't online then iTunes can't talk to the servers it needs to to verify your activation.
