Hi Cheri Torres with DISH Network Customer Service here. It sounds like your receiver is experiencing a power failure. If you have already tried performing a hard reset by unplugging the receiver for ten seconds from the wall outlet the next step to try is plugging the receiver into a different wall outlet. If the receiver does not reach a different outlet you may need to try using an extension cord to do so. If this option does not work you are probably going to need a replacement receiver. I would be happy to get a replacement sent out to you if you would like to email me directly at [email protected] with your account information (i.e. account number or phone number and name on the account). :)
