Firmware Updates

I was able to view Netflix through my Sharp DVD player but for the past month or more, I cannot due to a message stating a new firmware update is available.  WHen I prompt it to update, it just sits there and does nothing. This little light is blinking saying it's updating but nothing.  For TWO weeks I had it on (because the only way to turn it off is to unplug the unit) and still nothing.  Is this a Sharp issue or a Netflix issue?  I really would like some help in solving this, I am not computer savvy and cannot understand the language such as IP addresses, LAN, etc.
