Server Issues. We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. As of 12:05 PM ET our provider has moved us to a new server.
Things seem to be running better on this new server. However in trying to diagnose the issue (before finding out it was a hardware issue) we made some system changes which we need to undo. So if you find any issues or errors please let us know in the Operations Center Forum.
Thank you for your patience! Sorry for the issue!

Yeah, it didn't. Sorry. They spooled some beta software for the 811s and something for the 921s.
Just an update. L438 is spooling to 154 receivers so maybe by next week they will spool their first batch to customers.
Poke, this is what Scott posted a few days ago regarding L438:

Another oddity.
The 411 has always had the same s/w as the 211. Dish's software chart has L451 for the 211k.
I started doing this in Aug of 2007 so my logs don't go that far back.
This one is the one released on Friday:
PID: 0892h, ID: 1ECC, FW: L289, Model: DVR942.
PID=0892h
DownloadID:'1ECC'
Upgrading FW:
'L289': 'AAA1'- 'BZA7' 'L050'- 'L288'
'NONE': 'AAA1'- 'BZA7' 'L050'- 'L288'
'1611': '1[0-6]1[A0]'
'AAA1'- 'BZA7' 'L050'- 'L289'
New FW:'L289'
List of BootStraps and BuildConfigs:
'1[0-6]1[A01]' 'MA[BD-FHJK][A-DJ]'
IRD Model: DVR942
List of Serial Numbers:
[2] 1-4000000000
This one is from Aug 2007:
PID=0892h
DownloadID:'1ACC'
Upgrading FW:
'L289': 'AAA1'- 'BCM1' 'L050'- 'L288'
'NONE': 'AAA1'- 'BCM1' 'L050'- 'L288'
'1611': '1[0-6]1[A0]'
'AAA1'- 'BCM1' 'L050'- 'L289'
New FW:'L289'
List of BootStraps and BuildConfigs:
'1[0-6]1[A01]' 'MA[BD-FHJK][A-DJ]'
IRD Model: DVR942
List of Serial Numbers:
[2] 1-4000000000
Notice the difference in red. They just added to the range for the BootStraps.
Boba, don't forget to check other parts of FW filter - the ID, bootstraps, previous version, etc. That things could make the difference.
Is some one have 211k ? Could you post System Info to help distinguish it ?
PS. BTW, that posted info related to "DP411" as internal name picked from FW, not by marketing assignment.
Seems to me the internal model name from streaming data finally make a match to the "211k" name.

The only one that gets the release notes is Scott. Hopefully he will post them SOON.

OK, thanks. He has been pretty busy lately.
So has Dish given up on enhancements for 622/722? Seems kinda quiet. Id love to see a better setup for an ext hdd.
I sent an email long time ago to fix a flaw in one of the record/play modes for the 622/722 and it hasn't been fixed yet.
Kinda like they've just quit for now. All things Dish have been very quiet around here lately. Hopefully its not getting like D*'s CIA ways.
I did see a beta version go out last night for the 622/722 receivers. So there's something coming out, .........SOON!
Wow RandallA. Are you allowed to share or did you just see the numbers only and no details?
I just basically see what I post in the updates thread. They use different names for their beta software so I know they're testing. They just release it to their beta software testers, so we won't see those until they're ready to go.
