Within the past day or two the NESN feed has broken. NESN+ is still working, but appears to carry (what should be on) NESN for 75% of the time, with interleaved splashes of NESN+ at inopportune times. There's nothing odd in the Channels logs, so it seems like something at the source.
Is anyone else seeing similar behavior?
Yes. I get a "Stream Not Available" message when trying to view NESN.
Does not work for me either,
Same. I tried watching the game last night and I got the same "Stream Not Available" error.
Hopefully this can be fixed unlike the NBC channels. I'm realizing TVE access to all of these channels will eventually be going away.
Still a problem for me. Fixed for anyone?
"I'm realizing TVE access to all of these channels will eventually be going away" - really ? That sucks. The xfinity stream service interface sucks, channels-dvr is much better
I suppose it's possible that the streaming links have changed (I was concerned that NESN jumped into NESN360 with both feet). Anyway, maybe @tmm1 can give more guidance, perhaps instructing one of us to stream from a desktop browser and do a HAR capture for further diagnosis. I'm outside my home area right now, so can't do it myself 
(edit to add):
If someone can go to Watch - NESN.com on their desktop and try to stream the NESN feed. I was able to briefly stream the NESN+ feed in a browser and it seems to suffer from the same interspersion of incorrect content within the feed. I can't get NESN to play at all.
(edit to the edit):
@tmm1, et al., I fudged a connection and looked at the transport streams on the NESN site. It seems like they may be working. The URLs for the transport streams are https://nesnhddai.akamaized.net/hls/live/2097241/nesnhddai/.... for NESN and https://nesnplus.akamaized.net/hls/live/2094122/nesnplusprod01/... for NESN+. Not sure if this differs from what you have in Channels (or if this helps at all).
I get " This page isn’t working
If the problem continues, contact the site owner.
HTTP ERROR 400"
Has anyone from the Channels Devs looked into this one?
... and just like that...
I tried streaming again late last night and it looks like all is right in the world WRT NESN and NESN+ on Channels. Let's hope that it was a temporary burp.
