Erratic TV Everywhere (TVE) authentication failures

I had some TVE authentication issues on several DISH channels this morning so I set the password again as though it was wrong - it wasn't.

After rescanning all channels, many were missing. Even a couple that I was watching earlier in the day.
The errors in the scan window were either:
no login form found
or
notAuthorized: A network error occured when communicating with the provider's authorization service

I was able to reauthorize most of the failed channels by doing them one at a time. Many of them required 3 attempts and some up to 10 before they got the checkmark.
Once that was all done, I selected a channel to watch and immediately got a 503 error. After selecting the channel several times, the channel came on.
I'm not having any other network issues.

Have you done any of these?

Thanks for the tips.
Yes, I’ve done the same steps but with ABC Live. I also installed the prerelease version right away. That didn’t change the symptom. The issue doesn't appear to be with credentials because the channels authenticate eventually. I can manually authenticate most all channels, it just takes patience. I logged into MyDish as well to confirm the credentials there. I can check more providers’ streaming apps but I think it’ll just be additional confirmation because the channels will eventually authenticate.

Final thought. My ISP is T-Mobile Home Internet. TMHI uses IPV6 and CGNAT. I wonder if either is causing a problem because I’ll frequently get notified by Google that I’m accessing the search too frequently. (Just a thought, not a theory. It's unrelated to this issue of course but it seems to be caused by ISP.

Thanks!

This error means there is a DISH outage. It will work tomorrow.

There appears to have been an issue with Fox Sports channels authentication.
Not sure if they resolved it.
