Upgrading a 3800 to a 3900 Out of stream too long..please help.

[w12plai]

I have a Dishnetwork 3800 model receiver that has been out of the stream 3 years. Since that time I went to Dave and back. It seems that in that time, DN has upgraded the model via firmware to 3900. I have set my receiver to download and receive updates automatically, and have left it off for hours, and still nothing. Is there a way to erase the firmware and tell it to grab 3900 firmware? Can I get 3900 firmware somewhere? Also, will this continue ot upgrade? Please let me know. Thank you. K.woolfolk@insightbb.com

IF that 3800 has been disconnected for over 3 years, I gaurentee, you will not get the update.
