Fox sports website

So this is super strange and not necessarily a channels issue but it’s causing issues for channels. I lost my Fox sports and while checking their web page to see if I could login and watch I found this issue. On the page to login with provider none of the links do anything. If I click on Hulu or any of the others nothing happens.

This happens in regular and incognito mode. Same in Ubuntu chrome and Firefox. Here is the weird part. I have another Ubuntu machine with the same os and same chrome version on the same network and it has no issues when clicking on Hulu and it opens a login page. Same with my iOS phone the page works properly.

Obviously channels uses this Hulu link to authenticate my fox sports and fails. Anyone have any idea on how to remedy this?

Try this.
I think this is what Channels DVR does, based on your error screenshot here "Not Entitled" FS1 - #9 by Rice

Go to FOX Sports Live - Watch Live Sports, Shows, and Events Online | FOX Sports
Click SIGN IN at the left
Select TV Provider Sign In
On the upper right, Search a provider and key in hulu
Then click on Hulu in the search results

Same when trying that path as well. It’s not like it’s a link and it spins and just can’t connect. It doesn’t do anything. Much like if you would try to click on a picture.

Also on the watch tab, live now the thumbnails never populate and they are not clickable

The vod content is clickable but never plays.

Weird. Works for me on latest Brave, Edge and Firefox
Any browser extensions or pi-hole type ad blockers?
I'm using uBlock Origin on Firefox and it still works.

Try going here and click on the live video

Even without logging in it should let you view with a preview pass

No ad blocks or extensions. Dns is isp. I do run the espn plus container on this machine. I just checked and the fox sports channels through espn plus do work. Not sure how that authenticates

Nothing

You have something blocking something, not sure what.
Works for me using latest version of Brave, Edge and Firefox.

Are both Ubuntu machines set to use the same DNS Server IP address (your ISP's as you stated)?

So following your lead I figured I’d just take my home network out of the equation. Hotspotted my server to my phone went to fox and the providers were clickable. I did not authorize to watch and then switched back to my LAN reloaded the web page and was able to authorize with Hulu and watch live. So really I don’t know what the problem was. Channels still won’t authenticate though.

Maybe so. Not sure why it’s happening just on the one machine.
